waiting with the colors

August 11, 2013

Today I was anxious and in a rumble,

 but I tried to stay positive and not stumble.

I looked out the window and saw the blues, the grays, whites and greens,

 then I thought how neat, looking out the window made me stay free,

and optimistic, and not the opposite.

I was nervous for my family meeting ,

but I waited so that I could be happy,

not panicky or jumpy,

but smiling at the colors around me.
