Firing Up Joy
A great joy for me comes from biking.
Though it’s not to everyone’s liking.
Do what is your “Fun,”
You’ll feel like you “Won.”
Brings joy to your life that’s quite striking.

Shifting Sadness
When change comes about and I feel sad,
My boat rocks and things seem to go bad.
And rather than miffed,
Could I find some gift
To name as “Appreciate-launch-pad?”

Forward Motion
Commitment is often a hurdle,
Constraining, so much like a girdle.
See how you can fit,
Just one little bit,
To move you; remember a turtle.

Celebration of Appreciation
So many years now long behind her,
She seeks an apt birthday reminder.
“View what you may see
“As best it can be.”
Who knows what adventures may find her!

Calm Inner Chaos
When I’ve been away for a long time,
Effective reentry paradigm?
“Reach out and connect.”
Then what I expect—
Connecting returns me to “up-time.”

Day-to-Day Satisfaction
When things seem too hard, and I’m bogging,
I feel I’m not moving; I’m slogging.
Notice this minute.
Just try to win it;
Hooray for each step that I’m logging

Dropping Stereotypes
When you take in what you are viewing
You may find your thoughts have been skewing
The picture that’s true.
Now it’s time for you
To change; it’s time for renewing!
Practicing Patient Waiting
Bus shape – I have learned to scrutinize.,
Sort out from trucks with some merchandise.
Now I do not wave.
My waving I save.
Wait for a bus that I recognize!

Helter-Skelter Start-Attempts
Setting up the first ride? Chaotic!
My drama seemed rather neurotic.
Once check points were met,
And I ceased to fret,
Such fun! Almost being hypnotic.

Truth About Real Help
When you need some help for proceeding,
When what turns up next is exceeding,
Just what you can do,
It is time that you,
Request what’s required for succeeding.

Potential for Joy
When you’re in your life as the Player,
Participant bold, not naysayer;
Do look out for you,
Do what you need to,
By on-ing or off-ing some layer.

Learning Curve Benefits
The care that you take for the fitting
Of clothing in which you’ll be sitting,
May take you some time.
So, find what is fine,
Then you can keep riding, not quitting.
