My New Year’s Resolution for 2022, besides being happy and grateful each day, is to send out my Poems of the Month early enough in the month that you have time to read and enjoy them sometime before the next month begins.

So, here goes with January 2022’s offering... It’s called “Vision,” a subject about which I am deeply enamored. It was the first new poem I wrote for the Advent Season 2021!

With Vision, goals get accomplished, and life moves along at the pace you’ve set for yourselves, and you’re generally a happier person… Lots of Benefits!

I hope you enjoy this offering…

VISION

Sight is what your eyes produce
And vision is sourced from the heart.
So, never let what your eyes can see
Affect your vision. Know them apart.

Vision is more than seeing what can be…
It’s an appeal to your better qualities.
It’s a call to be something more than you are…
An opportunity to reach your potentialities.

Vision with action can change the world!
This life is your one chance to reach your goal!
Don’t let fear or doubt keep you from accomplishing;
Keep moving forward… you are in control.

There’s a Japanese proverb that puts a spin
On the subject of vision… here I share:
“Vision without action is daydreaming;
Action without vision is a nightmare!”

Without vision for your future you’ll return to your past.
Your reality will be determined by outdated perceptions.
Oh, and always chase your vision, not the money…
Money will follow, with few exceptions.
