IF I COULD GIVE YOU ANYTHING
If I could give you anything,
anything at all,
This is what I’d give to you,
all these and then some more.
I would pluck the stars from heaven,
their guiding light for you to shine.
And from the moon, her wisdom
to beam upon you in good time.
A ray of hope,
I would plead from the sun.
In hard times to cope,
for your day to be won.
I would give to you the oceans,
the riches of the seas.
I would give you the mountains
in all its majesty.
I would give you the whispers in the winds
that speak of heaven’s will;
the rainbow after the rain,
your empty heart to fill.
I would give you the song of birds,
the dance of the butterfly.
May your own song be sung and heard
before your last good-bye.
I would give you the planets
revolving in the galaxy,
just so you be reminded
of your own celestial quality.
These were mine to have;
from my heart into yours I pour.
Feel them rich and deep within
all these and then some more.

Because It’s You
Because it’s you,
life is made more beautiful;
and it isn’t in anything you do
but that you are being true,
and my world is good for it.
Because it’s you,
because you have come to be,
the stars shine brighter,
the moon has cause to smile,
the sun’s rays reach farther
for so many more miles.
Because they know you
in all your potentiality.
And my world is good for it.
You don’t need another’s approval.
You don’t need to have something to show.
You don’t need to pass some tests;
to be applauded for what you know.
You don’t.....
because it’s you.
You are already deserving
of every chance there is
to unfold your truth in your own way
by your soul’s perfect timing.
And my world is good for it.
Because it’s you,
you who are perfect as who you are,
how honored I am to be your guardian
to love and support you to go as far
as you would being no one else but you
in your brilliance as one amongst the stars.
And my life is beautiful for it.....
(because it’s you)

Do You Know?

DO YOU KNOW?
Do you know that you are well thought of?
Do you know that you are loved?
Do you know that you are watched over?
By those in heaven and on earth.
Perhaps you haven’t paid attention;
perhaps you are not attuned.
Even then, you are no less important
to the Sun, the Stars and the Moon.
They still shine for you regardless.
The trees still give you shade
when you are worn and tired
and your nerves are awfully frayed.
The birds still sing their songs for you.
The earth still spins her seasons
to mould and grow you as your soul would like
in this, your very existence.
Do know that you are cared for.
Do know that you are loved.
Do know that you are not alone
in your journey here on Earth.

AN APPLE ON AN ORANGE TREE
It’s tough being an apple on an orange tree
when it is a red one to orange many.
The oranges said, “Red and orange are close cousins,
try to lessen your fiery passion
and not smell so applely pungent.
Blend into our orange citrus quotient.”
Though the oranges insist,
the apple can’t help being what it is.
So it rolls off the orange tree
upon the ground alone and free;
whereupon a passing child
looks at the shiny, red apple with a smile.
He picks it up and takes a bite,
rolls his eyes heavenward with great delight.
“Ummm... What a fabulicious, juicy apple red
just beneath an orange tree!” he said.
And the apple was happy to have gone this way.
The oranges’ words did not hold sway.
For heaven knows even if it had tried and tried,
it would never have succeeded being one of the orange tribe.

THE IMAGINE SONG
Imagine there is no right or wrong
Imagine there is no good or bad
Imagine happy is just happy
Imagine sad is only sad
Imagine we are angry
as angry would be
without pushing out
blame onto you or to me
Imagine we need no reasons to be
Imagine we have no rules
to say how we must be seen
and so mask being true
Imagine a world accepting
of red, white, yellow and black
just as they are or in a color blend
Imagine it doesn’t matter and that’s that
