Today I

Poet: , © 2012


Today I have decided,
That it's time to take control.
There won't be anymore sitting,
And waiting, this is my goal.

Today I see it so clearly,
I am all that I have.
If I want to get something done,
It's up to me to pave my own path.

Today I will set my goal,
And work to see it through.
I'm tired of being afraid,
It's time for my dreams to come true.

Today I am quite happy,
And confidence has made its way too.
I as a person have grown,
From now on, to me I'll stay true.


"The ideal day never comes.
Today is ideal for him who makes it so."

Horatio Dresser


Be The Best That You Can Be

Poet: Julie Hebert, © 2012


At one time or another,
We've all heard these inspirational words.
Be the best that you can be,
And you'll fly just like the birds.

Fly as high as you can see,
And you'll accomplish all.
Be the best that you can be,
And you'll be twice as tall.

Walking high above the rest,
You're confidence will grow.
Be the best that you can be,
Only you can make it so.

Don't forget about those below,
As they are people too.
Treat everyone, as you'd like to be treated,
And people will always love you.

Be the best that you can be,
Be everything and more.
If you always try your hardest,
There will always be an open door.

Believe In Yourself

By Author Unknown


There may be days when you get up in the morning
and things aren't the way you had hoped they would be,
that's when you have to tell yourself
that things will get better.

There are times when people disappoint you and let you down,
but those are the times when you must remind yourself
to trust your own judgments and opinions, to keep your
life focused on believing in yourself
and all that you are capable of.

There will be challenges to face and
changes to make in your life,
and it is up to you to accept them.

Constantly keep yourself headed in the right direction for you.

It may not be easy at times,
but in those times of struggle
you will find a stronger sense of who you are,
so when the days come that are filled with
frustration and unexpected responsibilities,
remember to believe in yourself and all you want your life to be,
because the challenges and changes will only help you to
find the goals that you know are meant to come true for you.

Keep believing in yourself.

Words that you may find yourself relating to. Poetry that speaks to moving towards our goals, sometimes with little support from others. Sometimes we find ourself changing directions not being able to do what we orginally may have thought. But, the inspirational verses rienforce that if you keep going you willl make it.

Maintaining The Hold

By Dane Smidt


If you really knew how it all went down,
you would step back and take a bow,
because you know nothing of the past,
you couldn?t comprehend it was all too fast.

The path once taken has now turned to dust,
you cannot go down it but you know you must,
what lies at the end is the answer to it all,
but the higher you go the further you fall.

With this in mind you venture on,
leaving all behind you forever gone.
With a faint memory and a quivering spine,
deep within you know you are fine.

So in this question you stop the thought,
with this memory you once forgot.
You tread through this trail awaiting the end,
you look to the sides no companion or friend.

Now on to the task that asks for the best,
asking the question should you lay it to rest.

Or do you stay true and give it your all,
because if you do you will not fall.
