Tequila sunrise

Eyes open nature’s beauty

Colors so intense

I see

 

I see

I see in colors and variations

Not in black, white or gray

I see in beauty and optimism

Not in devastation and pessimism

The opportunities, so varied and alive

Sure, like everyone I can swing both ways

Have those pessimistic moments of time

But that is not how I live my life

Optimism is the key to my happiness

Why dwell on the pessimistic or

Things I can not change, too energy draining

I prefer to live a life with energy conserving or building

Negativity is a downer and is self-destroying

So much to rejoice in around me

Why should I waste my time crying?

Life is for living, laughing, and loving
