Crystal clear
shining in moonlight
preserving everything
hiding nothing
encased quiet
wrapped and solid
closed yet open
like fossils
looks fragile
only to warmth
growing stronger
getting colder
covering all
yet hiding nothing
if only life
were like ice

Talk to someone you don’t know today
share a smile with a stranger
include someone in your life
make your circle larger
Give hope to someone who is down
a shoulder to those less strong
listen to a broken heart speak
open your heart wider
Praise someone who has overcome
or one who has done well
a pat on the back can change a life
open your arms farther
Practice inclusion with every step
dismiss none think of all
walk for a second in another’s shoes
open your life each moment more

Open yourself to the possibilities inside
new adventures new journeys steps to take
every part of your soul nothing to hide
success in this life is something you make
Open your soul to what is real what is true
bypass the fake ignore the lies
the journey begins right inside of you
success only comes to he who tries
Open your mind to learn more every day
every moment has something to teach
absorb knowledge listen to what those who have paved the way have to say
success is in your path all you need do is reach
Open your heart to those who would seek to guide
those who can teach and can be part of the team
success is a journey be sure to enjoy the ride
and everything can be yours all you need do is dream
