My goal
To smile everyday
Even on days I’m down
To find a smile someway
To see the positive side
Of all situations
To find something good
In all God’s creations
Rain falls
And flowers grow
At storm’s end
A beautiful rainbow
Up before the Sun
Cause I’m a working man
I’ll earn my paycheck
‘Cause that’s the way I am
Even a traffic jam
Has an up side
For music on my radio
Makes for a Rock & Roll ride
And there will be times
When things won’t go my way
I’ll just make the best of it
Carry on anyway
Even my words here
Someone might disagree
That’s ok, it’s their right
And that’s the optimist in me

A great message to start
the day! When we feel
down and out, it’s worth
revisiting your write and
reread it with a critical eye!
Thanks for reading Laura. Yes, I do try to re-read my writes from time to time. Sort of like giving myself a tune-up.
A fine write AP.
Thanks orchi.
It is so nice to read an optimistic poem once in a while. I guess we tend to write more about 'bad' things than 'good' things. So, thanks, and keep on looking at the world with a positive spin!
Thanks for reading and your compliment Fred. And you're welcome, that's the view I try to see all the time, if I am down, it's never for very long.
A wonderful poem, AP! A poem to read on down days! You always do pick us up when we are down. Thanks for this write!
Thanks Christina, I have my down days too, but I try to not let it keep me down for too long. Fall of the horse, gotta get right back up and try again.
Loud applause for this positive and worthwhile attitude we all needing reminding is the best way to treat the troubles of life. A great read .
Thank you Fay, you're always so positive with feedback. A positive life is a happy life.
Wonderful outlook and poem
Thanks Bill.
Being positive has so may rewards in life, I too am a positive person. Good write.
Thanks Goldie, I can see that in your writes.
Being optimistic is the key to have a happy life. Good writing.
That's the lesson I learned a long time ago. Thanks for reading and your compliment m&m.
