Focusing on Perceptions

 

winter trees Pictures, Images and Photos

Are our cups half empty or half full?
Perception aids life's climb or hastens its fall.
When the trees sing, what really matters
is knowing that the trees are singing at all.

Through better and worse, through richer and poorer,
abundance lives in hearts filled with love and hope
for life freely offers countless treasures 
when eyes focus on its broader scope.

For those who are blessed with the gift of awareness,
the trees sing through all life's seasons and all life's years.
Winter's trees are singing for us now;
if we listen, we shall surely hear.

Indeed we will hear Sharon. Considering the creation of all things being created with a life of their own...all things live have a language all their own. We know the trees are singing when we see them lifting their arms toward Heaven. We know the flowers sing when they turn their pretty faces to the sun. Beautiful my friend!

Awesome poetry as usual Sharon. A lovely visual smorgasbord you presented
with your wonderfully talented pen. I enjoyed this so much! Just gorgeous.
