The New Year Opportunity

"The New Year Opportunity"
By:  Adrielle R. Bollin

A brand new slate To start the year
To put forth a goal And forgo all fear

For the storm has past That was yesteryear 
That raging tempest With its lessons so dear
This photo taken by Adrielle R. Bollin
So now we look on To a future that's bright
 Toward new possibilities Born day and night
This photo taken by Mitchell D. Bollin
 Exploring the new While remembering the old
Taking new paths While adventure unfolds
This photo taken by Mitchell D. Bollin
The possibilities are endless, The choices we can make
To be filled with regret, Or to learn from our mistakes
This photo taken by Adrielle R. Bollin
A new horizon is here, To greet the dawn
A New Year is given And is beginning to be drawn



Thank you to all who have taken the time to read, comment, and encourage me this past year!  It has been one of the greatest pleasures of my year, to get to know those of you whose blogs I've had the pleasure of reading as well as to learn of those who have read my blogs and have both commented and remained silent but appreciative.  May all your lives be filled with abundant joy, thanksgiving, peace, love and prosperity in this new year of 2011!  I look forward to challenging myself to be an even better poet, lyricist and photographer in this new year!

Much love to you all,
Adrielle R. Bollin

Merry Christmas!! A Chrismas Blessing


Merry Christmas to all my readers!

"A Christmas Blessing"
By:  Adrielle R. Bollin

May your heart be full, And your lights be warm and bright
May the beauty of the season, Shine through day and night
May your soul be vibrant, With blues, greens, purples and reds
May your head find a soft pillow, And a warm comfortable bed
May the joy of the season, Be aglow on your face
May the whitest of snowflakes, Remind you of amazing grace
May your heart find forgiveness, For all whom you love
May peace e'er surround you, Like a light from above
And joy fill your castle, Like the wise men of yore
Learning of the great tidings, May you never need more
I wish you a Merry Christmas, The best one of all
And that you'd be awed, With the wonder of it all

I Long For Summer

I long for summer
By: Adrielle R. Bollin



Because I wish For summer's sun
And greener grass To play and run
 To gaze at the glory In every living thing
 And become wrapped up In the beauty summer brings
 Because of the births That do reoccur
 Along with the color That paints the earth
I Miss the season Where warmth is rich
Yes I long for summer While winter attempts to bewitch

Winter's Gift

"Winter's Gift"
By: Adrielle R. Bollin 

 Though I don't like the cold, Or the wind of Jack Frost
Nor the perilous drive, On roads that are glossed
I cannot deny, The beauty I see
On windows and lakes, And the branches of trees
That blanket of white, Which covers the north
 Adds mystery and light, And odd feelings of warmth
For when else do you know, A time such as this
When you snuggle up close, And hug all those you've missed

Motivation

"Motivation"
By:  Adrielle R. Bollin

As clear as a cloudless bright blue sky
Certain as the ice cold chill in the winter air
The truth that has been revealed to me
Must provoke, stimulate, drive and dare

I mustn't falter, regret or stand still
I must climb with a sure and calculated aim
Take what I have learned, discovered and found
Use it to the full capacity and for greatest gain

Heart do not despair and soul do not quit
Remember the vision and go ever farther
Follow your instinct that God given wisdom
Hold tight to life lessons and always try harder

Give a great push and light up that fire
Don't settle for less or you ever will ache
Remember your wits and those perilous ruts
Try not to repeat those same old mistakes

Stay true to your core but change your ways
You know what is wrong and why all the falls
Now push yourself forward past all generations
Trust in the Spirit and hear the gentle calls

Never give up and never surrender
Don't let it weigh down your soul's ambition
Though a mighty great feat it is indeed
Keep firm on the road till comes the fruition
