MOVE IT! 

DON'T STAND STILL 

SWIM UPSTREAM 

DON'T FORGET TO FLY 

Poem for Today - Sunday October 5, 2014

FOR POETS

Stay beautiful

but dont stay underground too long

Dont turn into a mole

or a worm

or a root

or a stone

Come in out into the sunlight

Breathe in trees

Knock out mountains

Commune with snakes

be the very hero of birds

Dont forget to poke your head up

and blink,

think

Walk all around

Swim upstream

Dont forget to fly.
