GOAL OF THE DAY POEM

Today is something simple. Just a goal for you to do.
One that will only take a second and then you will be through.
I want you to send me a message. You can choose whether it will be short or long.
A message of a question "What is the hardest thing about a goal you are working on."
To be fair I will tell you mine. That way you can see if you relate.
I am always in fear of failing, that is something I truly hate.
Yet, if I never try then I will never know. For that I have already failed.
So, instead of fearing it as I do, I face the fear and scream and yell.
"You will not scare me today! I will succeed in every way!
Even if I make a mistake and even if it takes all day!"
With that I pray to God and ask him to help me through the day
I call a friend for moral support and I work my hardest in every way.
The goal gets finished and I feel relief.
I thank the Lord for helping me.
Then I go out and what do I do?
I find a friend that needs help and I help the friend too.
Let me know what is the hardest for you
lets brainstorm to find a solution that is true
A solution to get you back on your feet
and past the goal that is stating its defeat.
We can do this yes we can
For we all have it in us, isn't that grand!?!

Goals for fun

There are many kinds of goals but my favorite are the fun goals. These are the goals that we make up ourselves. A goal to beat a high score on a game, a goal to jump 100 times in a row. Of course some of those goals do require practice but we have fun doing them.

One of my favorite goals is to spend a day taking pictures. I love going out and seeing what I can find and the beauty of it. Sometimes I take pictures of friends and family or other people, other times I take pictures of animals and sometimes just of nature. For me taking pictures relaxes me. I can take over 1000 pictures because I enjoy doing this goal. You see for me if I am asked for one picture I will take that picture in different angles, different ways and over twenty times because I know not all pictures are alike. If I use one roll of film and out of the roll of film only one picture comes out the way I want it then I say I invested perfectly.

Fun Goals are always something you like to do. Another fun goal for me is writing. I love to sit outside against a tree and write. I love to let my imagination take me places and the adventures that await. I am always in wonder of where the tip of my pen will lead me next. I would love to write a book one day but as for now my goal is to keep writing. I write short stories, long stories, poems and lyrics that can be uplifting, or depressing, happy or sad. Yet they make people think. My writing is for me and I want to share some of it to others and I hope they find enjoyment in it as much as I do. I also love reading. Reading and Writing go hand in hand.

Below are some of the pictures I have taken on my fun goals along with a couple of my writings. I thought you may enjoy seeing and reading :)

A day at the beach

By Keyria Lockheart

In the wind the waves crashed all around upon the salty air of the sea. The smell of the mist entrancing me. Up high, seagulls fly by dancing. On a driftwood I sit, thanking God for everything. Flipping dolphins and breaching whales perform their tricks while ships nearby with passengers await each unscheduled performance.

Crashing sounds fall upon rocky shores of the sandy beaches and inside each

of the cracks of rocks that are strewn about are crabs and starfish as they are hidden amongst the wide world around them. Out by

the shallow waters, kid

s prance gleefully about, searching for sea shells very carefully. The sun shines, upon the invisible diamonds that appear on every wa

ve always out of reach for all of those who try to grab them up. The water, oh how it glistens, calling out for all. Adventure awaits, of exploring a world of unknown. What must it be like? I wonder inside my lost at sea mind ...to be living in the sea, as the waves crash, the dolphin jumps, the fish that swim and the kelp that grows, always imagining. Maybe one day I will find the treasure of the oceans secrets and instead of being

lost I will become free in the sea.

Wedding Day Greeting Card
~Keyria Lockheart~

Yay! Congrats! Hip Hip Horay!

I am so honored to share this special day.

A day of beauty and surprise,

A day of wonder and love in our eyes.

With friends and family all around

Crying tears of joy from a certain sound

Of two special words that are spoken by two.

“I love you” comes after the words of “I do”.

I am so grateful to have you both in my life,

And thankful to have witnessed the becoming of husband and wife.

May the Lord bless you in all that you do.

And always remember that I love the both of you.

It is that time I must go
I will be back for another show
Well, I hope you enjoyed those pics and the writing too.
See how many fun goals you can do.
The send me a comment or an email and tell
what you did, that you do so well.

Hugs and smiles to you my friend
and I will see you again and again.

Catching up

First I need to apologize for not writing sooner. I have to tell you though I finally finished one major goal on my long term goals list. I am now a graduate and have my AA. YAY lol.

Now here is something I did while I was working on my goal to finish college:

Morning Goal Blues

I woke up early, gave my dog a hug

I rolled to the right and screamed, there was a bug

Just lying on the pillow I hope it had a nice nap

I threw it in the garbage then adjusted my night cap

I went to a take a shower because now I felt icky

Of course didn’t help when I stepped in something sticky

This cannot be happening I said looking down

Sure enough doggie love pile was splattered on the ground

I went to the bathroom to grab some T.P.

It was all gone, lucky me

Time for a shower, I was washing my hair

When soap got into my eyes, ahhh! This was not fair

I put on my robe and into the kitchen I went

Thinking coffee might help oh and I must pay the rent.

I go to find my checkbook and my pen

When I heard my phone ring again and again.

Now I was in a frantic as I was throwing things all around

Trying to find where my phone was by its ringing sound

When I finally found it under the cushion that I threw

I pressed talk “Hello?” “Hey Kyra, it’s is Drew,

Was wondering if you wanted to go out today

That sounds wonderful I thought then said “O.K.”

I hung up the phone with information got

Wasn’t paying attention when I grabbed the coffee “ouch that is hot”

I screamed as it shattered to the ground

More too clean up, messes were coming in mounds

But first my checkbook last night it was on the table

When I was listening to the self help tap….ahem I mean watching cable

There it was lying down on the floor

It had bite marks from my puppy ding dong, there was the door

I went to the window to see who was there

It was my land lord lady with purple dyed hair

“Hello Mrs. Micheal and how are you today?”

“I am fine, need the rent and I will soon be on my way”

I grabbed my checks with the puppy teeth marks

Looking for a pen while my puppy did bark

Mrs. Miceals left, and I turned around

Looking at all the disasters on the ground

I took a towel and cleaned up the messes

Taking away some of my stresses

Ding dong ding dong went the front door

I was surprised that I fell with a kaboom to the floor

I looked once again to see who was there

It was Drew standing with his friend Claire

I started to mumble inside my mind

I thought this was a date oh well this is fine

I welcome them in they asked “What went kaboom?”

I tell them it was something in the other room

My laundry was still going and I wasn’t prepared

To start this day oh why should I care

I get dressed, grab keys and phone

Told my puppy to be good while he is alone

Off I go to start my life

Praying that it will hold no strife

Even though not much was done

The rest of the day turned out to be fun

In the back of my mind I had much to do

So here is my quick poem just for you

This I must confess

That sometimes life can be a stress

With all our promises and all our goals

We walk around counting Woes

I have this to do and that to have done

I have this to get and that to have run

Work, school, errands, meetings

Hello! Goodbye! Oh Simple quick greetings

In and out of stores

In and out of doors

Clean the house, mow the lawn

Run another errand won’t be long

Run around all through town

Sometimes I feel my world upside down.

May you have a Blessed day

With successful goals in every way.
