A Gem of A Day

Focus on the small
Nugget of good
That happened today.
Forget about the fool's gold
And the struggles
And hold the treasure close.
Squeeze it tight
Till it warms your heart
And spreads to your soul.
Feel the warmth infuse the day
With meaning
And block out the rest.
Ignore the tiredness
The wavering attention
The aches and irritations.
Let the jewel of the day
Shine and sparkle
With its light
Pointing to the wonder
Of tomorrow.
