The Big Picture

An Inspirational and Uplifting Poem EVERY DAY from Simon Halliday!

The Big Picture

Never think small, it's such a waste

You can do more, but not in haste

You can bide time, but not too much

Or all your efforts will be erased

Another day comes and habits repeat

You might be thinking on your feet

Or quietly wondering what it means

But action's needed on the street

It's all out there for you to see

There's nothing hidden, it's mostly free

The answers to your endless search

Are written in deserts, in clouds and sea

The picture isn't painted yet

But the sun's begun to set

Still time is short and need is great

Don't fear the ocean - dive in, get wet

And if the picture doesn't look great

Recall there was no time to wait

You had to act or nothing would change

So don't despair, march on - it's late!

The picture's canvas is wildly large

You have no words for this mirage

It's dancing, teasing, taunting you

No wonder there is no final charge

Because when painted, this picture defies

All that you held before your eyes

So dear and precious each earthly gem

Until the picture reveals the lies

So patience, yes, and don't let go

All things which come to help you know

The picture in its final form

It's bigger than you, so let it flow
