Here it is!

What If?

---- Big Frank Dickinson

What if this premonition were real?

What if the intuitions played out and the blue

Skies did indeed open up; and then all that

Came with blue skies did indeed come?

Hold that thought. Hold on to it for now,

And keep it in your mind and in your heart.

Excluding the expectations - blue skies

Minus the hopes and fear - blue skies.

Look up and look out and look at

The life that you know you are capable of

At the optimism that leads you to

Look not only at the present opening

But at the confidence that allowed you

To look up and out and not down and in

Cast your expectation out over the horizon

And dwell on that reach, on that belonging.

The sky that surrounds your daily muddle

Is your accompanying entourage

That towers above you and trumpets the

Unrecognized joy that surrounds you - always.
