“I wish you a tolerable Thursday. That’s all any of us can hope for” April Winchell
Thursday (Daily Photo 2016-01-28) One
Thursday
Not a pretty day
The lack of sun
Cannot be fun
The icy cold mist
Does nothing to enlist
To the fan base
Of this common day
Also known
As Thursday
Oh, but look!
There might be hope
In the horizon
The sun is arising!
All hail
It’s Thursday!

“Half full or half empty? That is the question, isn’t it!” Gun Roswell
Optimistic (The Daily Post) Five
The cup
Is always
Half full
The liquid
May run out
For a time
But sooner
And not later
It will be
Filled up
Again

“The biggest emotion in creation is the bridge to optimism” Brian May
Optimistic (The Daily Post) Four
Winter?
So what!
I don’t care!
I am feeling
Quite optimistic
Riding my bike
Sitting on a bench
So what if it snows
It’s almost June!

“I believe any success in life is made by going into an area with a blind, furious optimism” Sylvester Stallone
Optimistic (The Daily Post) Three
The hustle and bustle
The busy working life
Because I have
Holiday on my mind
And soon it will be time
To unwind

“My optimism wears heavy boots and is loud” Henry Rollins
Optimistic (The Daily Post) Two
Sunshine on a winter’s day
The nature’s showing a halo
The cold and snow to fade
And soon, it will be May

“Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence” Helen Keller
Optimistic (The Daily Post) One
Living, breathing, growing
Even if it is still snowing
Bending not breaking
Sometimes shaking
But soon it will be warm
After the cold and storm

PART FOUR
Seaside and seagulls
Sailboats with long hulls
Blue waters and skies
Would have stayed longer,
But oh, how time flies!

PART THREE
A land filled with rocks and lava
Taking it easy with a cup of java
Especially since it’s as hot as a sauna
But still, this is almost complete nirvana
