Inspiration Around Us
October 26, 2011
As I turn around I see colors.
I see different shapes and sizes.
They all inspire someones.
Whether you draw write or sing or teach.
The color red brings memories.
Those sturdy trees remind you of that movie.
And that bird has fearless colors you just want to draw.
Time goes by and so does the sun.
You wave it good-bye or a simple hello.
You know he'll come back tomorrow.
But we don't know if the bird will
Capture and remember the moment when you have the chance.
Don't let them go and fly away.
They could open new doors to you
As I open a new chapter in my life

I love the way the poem starts with turning back, to notice something that is going away--fleeting things. And then the ending is a surprise--it's a new chapter. This has some beautiful truth in it, Swiftie.
