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.
