NATURE'S RAINBOW, WILDFLOWERS(c) By Polly Guerin

Blazing yellow forsythia dances into spring

Row after row the first bushes rise and sing

The state flower of Brooklyn, New York

Forsythia borders houses, field and fork

In the road forsythia ambling on declares

Its place in parks, cascade rocks beware

Wildflowers a riot of rainbow colors emerge

Blooming first a 'beauty blossom' is so rare

In the bloom of spring butterflies take flight

Spreading their happy rebirth now in sight

While busy builders birds build nests

To fledge their young and do not rest

Till the work is done a song is sung

And the leaves burst from slumber

Bursting forth green and cherry blossom

Pink drifting over forest and city streets

Renewal, rejuvenation, rebirth such joy

An explosion of blooms now deploy

Reminds us, marvel at nature's beauty

A gift bestowed without any duty.

REMIND US TO REMEMBER (c) By Polly Guerin

Remind us daily to forgive and forget
There is so much more joy ahead

Remind us daily to smile at a stranger
Brighten the daily, you be the arranger

Remind us daily to reflect on it all
Don’t regret, spend time to recall

Remind us daily, the good and the sad
Happy is your reward and be glad

Remind us daily to focus on what’s right
Press the delete button on a negative site

Remind us daily to look into someone’s eyes
Speak words of encouragement you are so wise

Remind us daily tell someone they’re doing great
Compliments spread joyfulness, it’s never too late

Remind us daily to do amazing things
Where symphonic music makes us sing

Remind us daily how beautiful we are
Rising like an angel right here, not far

Remind us daily how talented we are
Hitch your wishes on a brilliant star

Remind us daily friends are a treasure
Always there to listen, give pleasure

Remind us daily pet’s unconditional love
A blessing to everyone, sent from above

Remind us daily to give thanks for each day
Revel in the glorious renewal don’t give it away

Remind us daily to pour love into encounters
Your happiness soars eliminate bounders

Remind us daily that there so much more in store
New heights of ascend be honest to the core

Remind us to be generous to befriend the meek
Sleep like a baby when you reach your peak

Remind us daily you’re the master of your fate
Start on a new regime it is never too late.

DREAMCATCHER, Weaver of Tales (c) By Polly Guerin

Become a dreamer, weaver of tales
Dreaming big, bigger never fails

Expand your vision beyond the pale
See yourself successful, never fail


Secure in your house dream in peace
Doubts, fears therein will release


Protected inner space, no one to pry
Sheltered dreaming, it’s alright to cry


Don’t let self-pity overwhelm
Seeds of greatness you have sown

Expand your vision; you’ll be fine
Dream the dream, one day at a time

See yourself accomplishing your dreams
Reality is never quite what it seems

Find your own secluded place be inspired
Dreamers are victorious, never tired

Realize that dreams are a special gift
With solid expectations, do not drift

Stay on a steady course to port
A dream is precious, never bought

Yours’ alone to overcome all odds
There’s more ahead to deeply prod

Be the reaper of dreams, inspire friends
The never-ending dream never ends!

INFECTIOUS JOY (c) By Polly Guerin

I see it in a radiant face
As delicate as fine Alencon lace

Infectious joy surpasses moods
A beautiful smile always soothes

Love of life energizes uplifts
Softens stress and drifts

Into the stillness of a park
Stroll in nature on a lark

Breathe in the verdant air
Trees emerge, never were there

Radiate with awe and wonder
Color your life and ponder

With gratitude a new kind of joy
Infectious laughter like a girl or boy

Fill your basket with gifts of love
Distribute kisses like a dove

A happy heart is irresistible
Hugs and big hugs are permissible

Give love and watch love’s return
It’s something we have to learn

Your love for life surpasses ages
Your bountiful joy be contagious.

CONGRATULATIONS and HONOR (c) By Polly Guerin

Don’t let critics downplay your dream
Adversity is not all that it seems

Just a small nick in your great plan
Even if they grunt don’t understand

Stay focused to the triumphant end
Supported by loyal, inspired friends

Select those who champion you
In every effort it is your due

Soar to heights beyond measure
Even small joys be your pleasure

Your conviction never swayed
Success is yours rolling on a wave

Rushing to shore to claim victory
Applause awaits your synergy

Against all odds your dream peaks
Awards await the patient one who seeks

Rise up with accolades and honor
Your golden years be much fonder

The pinnacle of achievement scores
All congratulations and honor be yours.

THE SISTERHOOD OF BROKEN HEARTS(c) By Polly Guerin

A New Year---a clean slate
Life is short, don’t hesitate

It’s time to clear the decks
Neaten up our minds, no regrets

Begin today, embrace change
Accept a real chance to rearrange

Identify your secret happy place
Quiet down get out of the race

Dare to dance in the gentle rain
Wash away all the angst, the pain

Create new possibilities to win
Newfound happiness and grin

Speak words of comfort and soothe
Gratefully acknowledge, never rude

Practice simplicity, speak with love
Quite the critics hold your head above

Say “Yes” to the journey back to yourself
Be ladylike and gracious, never selfish

For life is more precious than gold
Choose to live it with a spiritual hold

Live as if you been given one last day
Make it your mantra don’t delay

Be with those who help your being
Release useless relationships, begin singing

Accept life’s tangled dance and flatter
Believe in healing, mind over matter

Mend broken hearts, begin anew
Reborn to be a Brand New You.

2012 YOUR HAPPIEST YEAR YET!!! (c) By Polly Guerin

So many reasons to be thankful
for little things
Small unassuming treasures
that life brings
Greet a frown with a smile
linger a little while
Give an optimistic word or two
before the chat is through
Soften a tear, a disappointed heart
encourage at the start
Spread joy throughout the day
clear gloom away
Stop complaints with a compliment
be it sincerely meant
Bring a sunshine personality and convey
cheerfulness all the way
As the joyful holiday season unfolds
peace and harmony foretold
A new year unfolds a brand new day
don’t fritter it away
Off with outdated points of view
rejuvenate be true
Make room for new vitality and health
get off the shelf
Discover new found prosperous ideas
more brilliant than previous years
It’s time to prioritize your needs first
put other demands in reverse
Recharge yourself in a serene place
resume a happy face
See good things keep coming your way
patiently plan each day
Make 2012 your Happiest Year Yet!!!
