Left alone with our day, to do with as we wish
Hopefully it will be productive
Frame of mind will be the perfect guide
Greeting the day in a positive frame of mind
with fortitude – most beneficial
Getting out of the bed on the wrong side
with a negative shake of the head – demoralising
not just for you
But those you may encounter
If you can put your finger on the cause
Rather than someone else assist you
Try putting those wrongs to right yourself
Bring the positive in you out for a coffee
Notebook and pen at the ready – take notes – it will work.
Write on what you see about you –
casting your net out into a brand new day
bask in its glory
See how good that feels?
Wake up some days feeling under the weather
Sun appears – Happy days.

The published and unpublished manuscripts of Chris Black. A writer from Wexford, Chris has been writing and publishing poetry for the past twenty+ years. September 2016 saw his dream come to fruition with the publication of his first book Same Train, Different Track a book of Poetry and Short Stories.
Preferred reading - Autobiographies, the history of the native American Indian, plays golf badly according to those he plays with/against. Continues to try and write each day/night by giving the sawdust a shake and seeing what falls out - an eclectic taste in music, spent 16 happy years as a radio presenter in a part time capacity while "slaving" away at the coal face now enjoying all that retirement has to offer and more. Twitters badly @CJBlack2012, on Soundcloud @ C. J. Black & chris black 36, youtube @Chris Black-poetry-spoken word. You can find his "work" at http://www.chrisblack2012.com - very original? When he comes up with a fresher idea you will be the first to know. If you do happen to drop by either site do let him know your thoughts, who you are and where you come from - He will in time also pay you a return visit. Thank you.

Look forward to the end result Elaine Patricia – but I’m not the most reliable one to depend on for prompts.
