235 TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STAR #2

Once the fires of lust energize my existence
How I wonder what I'll grow to be
At first breath ...
Before my spirit smiles, laughs
Rolls over, sits up, crawls
Stands, toddles, walks, runs
Flies toward each next personal goal ...
I will cry ... right out loud ... to be heard

Instinctively
My adventurous spirit and curious mind
Will stretch toward achieving
Every challenge life sets before me
Until
A lightening bolt
Shoots in from out of the blue
Striking my sense of security down

At those times
When I've been struck by lightening, which
Colors my mind as black as night
While colorizing my spirit blue
I tune into this PLAN
Which enables me to figure out
How BEST to fire up
My exhausted life force, yet again:

First I rest to reset my inner compass
Next I muster the humility to dive into knowledge
Then, upon benching my ego
I ask a trusted guide for help
And here is how
This common sense approach
To solving problems
Will serve me well when I grow up:

Each time I sense
THE MAZE directly ahead
Looming heavy overhead
I remind myself of this fact:
The thought processing center of my brain
And the shining star that lights my spirit
Combine to empower me
To rise above the hazy maze, repeatedly

Each time I think to make good use of my mind
Here is what you'll hear me sing:
Twinkle, twinkle little star
Open my eyes as I approach the maze ...
Guide me toward rising above its darkness, repeatedly, and
Then, please remind me that no Maze proves as mighty as
The life force burning brightly within my mind
ABC No Maze Can Faze Me—Forever!
