Poetry of Raney Alexandre from collection titled,

"Sunshine, Wind & Weeds"
subtitled, "Conversations with Myself"

Blessings of the Day

See the lessons of the day
As a blessing in your life
Take each moment and event that comes along
As a gift to be cherished
As a light along the way
Celebrate it with a welcome or a song.

Even when the road seems rough
With big stumbling blocks in place
Choose to walk around them in a different way
Let your heart be open wide
Hope & faith anchored inside

Receive the loving hand that guides you on your way
Cultivate a world view
Regardless what folks do
That holds you steady with a vision of God’s plan
Expect things to be right
Seek the morningstar at night
Find the place within of greater peace and calm

Plan to see the positive
Then the chance is good you will
For the vision sets the path to manifest.
A better life that is to be
Truly starts right here with me
While judging not the deeds or actions of the rest.
