To have a love for life; what joy To see what’s bright when day is grey To use ones time with life to toy Is just how I enjoy each day To see the good, forgive a wrong To share a smile so it may grow To be where I might just belong Lets good and peace together sow To know each day you do what’s right Fulfill ones duty and ones deed To hold each day as happy sight Does fertilize and grow that seed To know the truth, but share a thought To listen and to be a friend Does offer more than what is bought And that is what to you I send |

Very much enjoyed this read and you said it exactly the way it is intended to be. I especially liked the second and last verses. Well done. |
