I've never seen a butterfly give up with just one wing.
I've never seen a bluebird too lonely to sing.
I've never seen a daisy too shy to bloom.
I've never seen a wolf scared to howl at the moon.
I've never seen the sky to big to cry.
I've never seen a child to young to wonder why.
I've never seen the wind too tired to blow.
I've never seen the sun decide not to show.
I've never seen a tree to tall to touch the ground.
I've never seen a cricket to sick to make a sound.
I've never seen a stream hesitate to be a waterfall.
I'll never give up on life.
Now now, not later, not at all.


Don't hold back the words you really mean.

this is a double post, I am closing this one and leaving the one in open as you have more replies there. In the future, please only post the poem in one forum, not in two at the same time, as that is against guidelines. Thank you, SEA
