One Positive Thought
It began with one obnoxious thought
That popped in my head
One unchecked thought
That brought me discomfort - almost dread
It was this one bizarre thought
That caused my mind to quake
One ridiculous thought
My whole body it did shake
And then something happened
Which I cannot explain
It started a chain reaction
Right here inside my brain.
That one little thought
Multiplied beyond belief
And sent more of these thoughts
Throughout my being with no relief
It was not my usual kind of thought
It contained not one bit of worry
In fact, in the pit of my stomach,
I sensed a comforting type of flurry
This one little thought
Made me question my whole existence
My anxiety turned into serenity
And I let go of my emotional resistance
It was just one positive thought
It was sneaky how it entered
But it made its way to my soul
And now my life is more centered
This one positive thought
Made me laugh for a while
Made me stop and smell the roses
Made me want to wear a smile
That one little thought
In a moment, changed me so much
I am now truly blessed
With a positive touch
