A Glass Half Full

Are you an eternal optimist?

Do you always see the glass half full?

Do you constantly look for that

Silver lining? Live with a hope that

Springs eternal?

Liar!

Or misguided fool.

Either way you miss the mark.

Setting yourself up for disappointment

At every little twist and turn.

Nothing wrong with wanting better.

Nothing evil achieving goals,

Courting hope until we see that

All will be as it should be.

But,

And you knew there was a but,

Keeping a base in reality,

Towing a line of logical measure

Helps to define the finite line,

Keeps us on course,

Uncovering treasure.
