A very well-written uplift poem. Always seem the light no matter how dark the darkness is the light will shine through and take it away so that the light shine in our lives again.

Full of good uplifting advice just as the doctor ordered and the prompt sponsor wanted. I would have preferred a more regular metrical approach. I thought the opening line of the tercet was inordinately long, but apart from that it was indeed quite uplifting.

Thanks for your review. Not sure how that stanza turned into a tercet, should have been a quatrain. You're right it was too long and has been altered.

Yes the sentiments expressed here are those we need to seek in these troubled times, 'Push those dark skies away' and the final line reiterates the search

Dear Mystery Author,

What a sweet and powerful piece - reminding us that we each can affect our own life's attitude. There is so much power we hold in our hands. But not all of us accept that responsibility - we just want to let the outside sources determine our feelings and attitudes.

Thanks! Good luck!

When we write uplifting poetry it brings positive attitude to surface for others to read. A person cannot follow always in the same footsteps, as God uniquely created each of us as His own.
