Attitude

Attitude is a powerful thing

It can make or break your life,

It can make you as happy as a frog in a pond

Or fill you with turmoil and strife.

So which do you choose when the going gets rough

Do you break down and lash out at all?

Do you say things you shouldn't or that you'll regret

It is hard to get up once you fall.

So for you my friend, just a little advice

Be a guiding example for all

Have a positive outlook for everyone you see

And remember to always stand tall.

Remove the chip that lives on your shoulder

Put the negative words down to rest,

And remember each day is a gift from above

So strive to always do best!

I agree with the logic in the poem. We can effect the people around us. A positive attitude can make people feel better. Negative people create a bad place and situation. Thank you for sharing the amazing and positive poem.
