You are amazing.
Did someone tell you?
If they didn’t, then
I want to tell you now.
. . .
You are the creature
Like no other.
Yes, you are.
Look in the mirror.
. . .
Look way past those
Tired eyes and wrinkles,
Look deeper, deeper still.
What do you see? I see
. . .
You are so riveting
And fascinating, you’re
A movie star, and that movie
Has an amazing plot.
. . .
Let’s name it maybe
The Saga of Your Life.
Your past and present
Are tantalizing in every
. . .
Diminutive detail.
And every day
Is offering a call
For new adventures.
. . .
You choose the way
You live each day.
You decide what matters,
Who, when, and where.
. . .
Don’t miss a day
Get out of your bed
With single notion
That something wonderful
. . .
Is going to happen today,
Because you’re in charge
It is your movie and
You’re calling shots.
. . .
