I See Good People
My heart beats to the drum of hope
Life hands out test sheets every day
I always pass.
While walking, a foot is stuck out
there I lay flat on my face
So what!
I pick myself up
and stick my tongue out
to the one who tried!
I beat another obstacle.
A panicking phone is ringing,
do this, do that, do it now,
was it done yesterday?
Uhuh, yep, ok, yes, I did it.
Thanks for calling.
Someone is yelling at me,
I listen.
“There’s a good person
in there somewhere”
What happened?
hmm, they’re backtracking,
they realized I’m a good person.
That’s what I see; I see good people

A Poem About Optimism and Good People: A reminder in the form of a poem of encouragement and hope – to look at life from an optimistic angle. It takes just as much energy to be hopeless as it does to be hopeful. I choose hopeful. I also believe that good souls outnumber the bad. As they say, look for the helpers.
