When I'm feeling blue
As I so often do
It's very hard to move
To get back in the groove
Sometimes I sit and cry
And even wonder why
The pills they help a bit
They also stifle wisdom, wit
At times I only write
To help stave off the night
I need to have a walk
Or maybe have a talk
Move away from this blue place
Before I sear my face
With my tears of rust
Perhaps I'll learn to trust
But something I must do
When I'm feeling blue
Is look to the glass to see
Who is really me
And what can set me free
From my history
A walk is always good
In my safe neighborhood
I'm kind to myself
I walk and ponder wealth
Of spirit I have found
In beauty all around
Sometimes I stop to chat
Do a little of this and that
Sometimes I simply smile
It soothes the rank and file
And people smile back
Giving back the hope, I lack
And when my stroll is done
My walking in the sun
My heart is lifted up
I'm ready for life's cup

What works best for me
when stuck in misery
is to walk beneath the moon
Then with delight I swoon
'Tis there I find my peace
Cause sorrow demons cease



Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen.
