Hawk Eye

Hawk Eye

Freedom on the updrafts.

Spread my wings and soar.

 

Above my troubles and my worries,

They all seem small, insignificant.

 

I see the immenseness of the world

And recognize my place in it.

 

Nothing is handed out.

Narrowing my eyes, I dive

 

And go after what I want.

I will make the world mine.

Set goals and go for it. That's the ticket. You got it. Write down your goals and post where you can see daily.. Dash of your car. Great motivation piece which I think you were directed at yourself. Keep it up. Eye on the prize. But if I am not wrong you already have the prize with that little guy there with you.

Absolutely on the goal setting. I need to stay focused! My little guy is just one of my prizes! I have a daughter too. 😄. Thank you for your kind words and taking time to read and review!

I really feel the need for success, this is a great perspective on life and reaching toward one's goals. "I will make the world mine." - such a strong ending line!

[Sharon Kim]

Thank you so much! I think I wrote this to remind myself to go after my dreams and stop waiting for tomorrow.

I like the thoughts and the vision of the world.
"And go after what I want.
I will make the world mine."
Above lines I liked a lot. Would be cool to be a hawk. Few predators for the amazing bird. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
