Your Own Song

From here to yonder, does the cool wind sing
Carrying in its wake, the sounds of spring
A beautiful noise, of its past long since gone
Listen to trees. Can you hear them
And their song?

The sounds, yet familiar, are indeed not the same
These pleasures they wail are strengthened through pain
A beautiful noise, of its past long since gone
Listen to the trees. Can you feel it,
In their song?

What do you hear? Is it the sorrow of a life passed by?
Or possibly the pleasure that brings a tear to you eye?
Gather these sounds, of you past song since gone
Place them together and make sense
Of this song.

Close your eyes. Feel your desire and set it free
Become that wind and breeze through the trees
Hear the noise of you past long since gone
Listen to yourself. Take this time and learn
From you song.

Yes, finding your rhythm is rough thing to do
I'll be here to help. I know you'll come through
Your headed to the future with your past long since gone
And like the wind in the trees,
You sing your own song.

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for awhile and leave footprints in our heart and we are never ever the same.

Thank you all for leaving footprints!!
