It has been much too long a time from my last posting - and a couple of people have mentioned that I need to do an update.
Well here it is...poems about my thoughts and emotions in the past while I've been frustrated, scared, and very worried about different events in my life. Frustrated with co-workers and work in general, scared that my life would be taking a left turn instead of a right, and worried about my green card renewal. The last one I came to realize I was making mountains out of molehills...

When there is nothing left to do or say
 When the week the day the hour don’t go your way
 Think about the sun that shines
 All the things that just turned out fine
 Putting a little happy at the end of your day
 
When feeling surrounded, put upon, oppressed
 When every deed, task, obstacle leads to stress
 Think about a day with some time to yourself
 Where you can store, hoard a treasure of joyful wealth
 So when trouble comes it will bother you less

Frustration with computer troubles
 Frustration mistakes make it double
 Frustration with officials that travel
 Frustration not solved with a gavel
 Frustration labels are off kilter
 Frustration make sure mouth has a filter
 Frustration time is slowing down
 Frustration turns smiles into frowns
 Frustration need to look at positive side
 Frustration leads to an emotional ride
 Frustration – hope it will all go away
Elation – waking up to a wonderful new day

My March 25, 2013 Worries
 
People say: “Worry not what tomorrow brings.”
But ahead is the unknown – easy to fear at the unseen
Though others have gone before, to my worries I still cling
 
Easy to say: “Let it go, make not mountains of molehills”
I let panic overtake, blinding fear becomes obscene
So until tomorrow is past – worry will continue to make me ill
 
When I’ve faced tomorrow’s hurdle say: “I told you so”
Hopefully before then my faith and trust will be redeemed
And all my tiny worries and fears, I will quickly outgrow
