Look Up Look up, look up raise up your eyes Don’t look down or cast those sighs Look up, there’s a light not far ahead And a place to rest your weary head Don’t look down or even look back To where your soul received its crack Look up, look up the future is there It’s bright and hopeful full and fair Look up look up lift that spirit free Don’t look down seek what you see Look up, to the wonder that is there Get ready to climb up dreams stair Don’t look away or feel dismayed Look to life for the games it’s played Look up, look forward to your fate Don’t wait or stay until it’s too late Look up, look up feel your soul rise Don’t let doubt confuse your eyes Look up, to the future that awaits Go and seek it challenge your fates Don’t draw away now seize your day Look to where you can be all you say Look up look up you can truly fly Look up to the heavens to your sky Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Paula dear heart, my Friday spirit raiser. I only hope it helps you love, sometimes we need to lift our eyes to where the future is. Thank you always love Take care sister mine as always Mushy  inot2B love thank you truly, and I enjoyed writing it. There are times that I forget that this merry go round we call life is supposed to be fun. Take care love as always Mushy But love me for love's sake, that evermore Thou mayst love on, through love's eternity Elizabeth Barrett Browning |

That's what I like about you so much...your positive outlook! All the while you were going through a painful time you kept telling yourself that you'd be fine...and even though it was so very hard it really helped you to have such a good positive nature at the seat of your soul...I really enjoyed this very much....Prinny The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |
