INSPIRATION IN FRONT OF ME

BY BARBARA K

A CHERYL’S PALS COLLAB

Each day as I awaken

and open up my eyes,

as Day meets Night

and welcomes the Dawn,

and also welcomes me,

all I have to do is look around

to know how what I see inspires me

and in so many ways.

The sun as it says farewell

to the moon and greets me

with its warming rays;

the birds welcoming the Dawn

and singing the sweetest song;

the roses in the garden

with their mantles of glistening dew –

all of this (and more) inspires me

as I step into my day.

And along the way

throughout my day,

the people that I meet (here),

the words you write,

the inspiring thoughts,

the pictures painted across

the canvas of my heart.

You open my eyes that I may see

so many possibilities in front of me;

you help release my thoughts

and help to set them free;

your thoughts brighten up the day,

and shelter me from the dark;

and through your words

I can so often feel

the mountain breezes

and see flowers

in full bloom.

So to you,

and to all the beauty I see,

as I reflect back on those times

along the way of each and every day,

I can truly say these words and mean them,

“You are my inspiration”

in so many wonderful ways.
