Pride Isn’t Contagious

We watch, as the actor, on stage, takes a bow;
often wishing we could take his place;

Joy In The Morning !!!

I awaken this morning with a feeling of hope;
tho life is subtly passing me by;

perhaps, worry, itself, has a reason;
could it be,

unity held all of life as the sum;
thoughts laid the foundation
