Every single day
When you wake up
Let the first thing that you think of
Be something that you LOVE

A Flower,
A Friend,
A Favorite Song,
The list goes on,
And on-
And on.

If you cannot
Think of a thing in sight-
Hug yourself,
Hold on tight
And say...
"Everything will be alright."
Because it will
All you need to do
Is just sit still
Sit quietly
With your mind...
With your soul
Be gentle with yourself
Be kind

Sometimes we have to open our eyes
To see the light, no matter how dim,
No matter how bright
For even on the darkest night
The moon still shines for you

Embracing you with light
Right where you're standing
With love in Spirit,

tHE tERRY tREE
