In my home town
there is a street named
Energy Drive
I often think of that avenue
wondering if I stood on a curb
I might soak in that guidance
be drawn by the concept of its strength.
I understand the name
is drawn from industry
symbolic of discovery
Yet, I need to capture
that essence.
Ever notice the happy sense
of good energy
Always see the value
good thoughts can bring to our lives.
Yes the moments exist
that tear our hearts apart,
the tears remain when sensing fear,
the world seems less friendly …
Only when we allow ourselves to remain
alone enough to sap our energy.
Imagine pleasant thoughts
a desire to provide happiness
a genuine smile
shocking as it may seem
there are many of us that decide
upon our day
by the energy we engage.
We are energy driven,
polar opposites that attract.
When a negative wave reacts
call it a vortex
we seek shelter
we back pedal
we often haven’t a clue
how we ever got there.
Upon a distant star
traveling through the night
an optimistic response
allows our lives to become
that fragment,
that piece of life,
a strong purveyor of the resource of
Energy Drive.
