Day 7 Invent ‘Comfort Zone Poem’

December 7 Dawn

Comfort Zones, when did you last step out one of yours?

This is by the famous poet called Anonymous, The Comfort Zone Poem! 

I used to have a comfort zone

where I knew I couldn’t fail,

The same four walls of busy work

were really more like a jail

I longed so much to do the things

I’d never done before,

But I stayed inside my comfort zone

and paced the same old floor

I said it didn’t matter that

I wasn’t doing much,

I said I didn’t care for things

like diamonds or furs and such

I claimed to be so busy with

the things inside my zone,

But deep inside I longed for

something special of my own

I couldn’t let my life go

by just watching others win,

I held my breath and stepped outside

to let the change begin

I took a step and with new strength

I’d never felt before,

I kissed my comfort zone good bye

and closed and locked the door

If you are in a comfort zone

afraid to venture out,

Remember that all winners were

at one time filled with doubt

A step or two and words of praise

can make your dreams come true

Greet your future with a smile,

success is there for you!
