Peace of Mind

There is beauty every where I look now
why was I living in misery all these years
I see the vivid green of a cluster of trees
and it makes me smile
I feel life in everything I touch
every sound carries a bit of happiness with it
That phase of my life is over
passed
gone
Thanks Sister
for showing me the vicious circle
I was stuck in for 25 years
the life I was mirroring
and helping me grow up from a teenage boy
into the man I should have always been
I don't need to search for elation
it's all around me
in all the little things
So nice to smile
and not force it
So nice to laugh
and to sleep
and to be free of anger
I have love to give
and patience
and the world smiles
it smiles
it smiles
