You think that you are nothing-
I don't think that judgment's fair
For I think there is nothing
In the world that can compare
To the way you make me feel
And the things you've helped me be.
You think that you are nothing
But you mean so much to me.

You are my inspiration,
you are the words I write
And in my time of darkness
You bring a gentle light.
You're dear to me as anything
And lovely as a song
You say that you are nothing
But I've proven that's wrong!

God bless America, my home sweet home.

I think you've more than shown they are someone and are very special, Elizabeth.  Nice write.

by the grace of God.
