A day the seemed so bad, was really so good

My thoughts have consequences

They affect my mood at the time,

It’s dependent on my perspective

I can have a good day by design.

***

Give it a try, as I think you’ll find

Positivity need positive thoughts,

Negativity from negative thoughts

It’s your thinking that’s the source.

***

Over many years I started to learn

I believed it was luck, bad or good,

Then I realised it’s my perspective

And my life thrived as I understood.

***

I’ve experienced the odd bad day

In the past I’ve felt paralysed,

Then looking back in hindsight

They were a blessing in disguise.

***

I realised, on these bad luck days

A necessary check of my perspective,

A turning point to change my luck

Positive thoughts are more effective.

About the Creator

Colleen Millsteed

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.
