Choosing My Perspective
The day isn’t what you expected—
The time seems adversely affected.
Expanding your view,
Of what you could do,
Reveals things as “wisely selected.”
Best Rest
I wonder, what constitutes resting?
A wild type of fun and some jesting?
What do you think of,
When speaking with love?
Rest comes with the care you’re investing.
Staying Flexible
A shift in the way of proceeding,
Requires that I notice my reading,
Of how that day goes.
The difference shows,
There’s more than one way of succeeding!

Minding Your Energy
When you ride a trail with directions,
Expecting the signs as reflections,
Of where you will go,
And then it’s not so,
You’re likely to have some objections.

Creative Wayfinding
When met with a sign saying “detour,”
One juggles what’s said with the allure,
Of making it through.
But it might be true,
You’d find yourself stranded, so be sure!

Unplanned Rest Day
A change that you’d name as frustrating,
Providing a shift that’s creating
Drier, safer trip.
Temporary blip.
Your route to adventure awaiting.

Directions Reflections
When you are assessing directions
Remember to “damp down” corrections.
The names that you know,
May only be so,
If matching the speaker’s connections.

Off To A Fine Start
When riding conditions are “stellar,”
It seems that there is nothing “sweller,”
Than riding your bike!
It is what you like,
Described as a glowing bestseller.

Launch Day
When launching a wonderful project,
Remember your vision, your concept.
Things may go awry,
In spite of your “try,”
Stay true to your marvelous prospect!

Appreciative, Affirming Words
The words you are sending or saying
Regarding some working or playing
Can perk up and cheer
The one who will hear
Your words may encourage their “staying.”
Why Terry
When you’re at a point of deciding
What pants you will wear while you’re riding
Best clothe your behind
With pants you will find
At Terry; their pants keep you gliding.

Momentary Reprieves
To live with the hard wind that’s blowing,
You must be intent on the “going.”
And may you receive
Some micro-reprieve,
That morphs knock-down times into “flowing.”
