Little Bird

Little bird I watch you every day

As you make your own way

Watching you fly across the sky

Is certainly the reason why

I’ve come to admire you so

I’m sure you already know

You are the light

I follow day and night

You are the seed

That leads to a good deed

You fill me to the core

And I long to give you more

Little bird you are the key

To bringing out the best in me

Your tender loving care

Is always there

It’s something pure

It makes me feel secure

It’s a steppingstone

That never leaves me alone

You’re one of a kind

You give me peace of mind

You make me smile

The smile last awhile

You have my word

You are the best little bird

For You

I’d walk a mile

To see you smile

I’d go on any journey

With you only

With you I’d share

Tender loving care

I’d let love win

The moment I let you in

I’d show you my heart

Right before I start

I’d take your hand

Right where you stand

All this I’d do

For you

I’d let you see

Every part of me

I’d take you to a place

Filled with guidance and grace

I’d let you know

How I can grow

I’d plant seeds

That lead to good deeds

All this I’d do

For you

Secrets

My secrets lie in my heart

That’s where they always start

Secrets of joy and pain

Secrets of what I’ll gain

Secrets of joy and laughter

Secrets of my next chapter

Secrets of my soul

Secrets that make me whole

Secrets of my solid ground

Secrets that turned my life around

Secrets of the blessings

I count without stressing

Secrets of the love

That feels like heaven above

Secrets of the strength

I gain from God at length

Secrets of the seeds

That lead to good deeds

Secrets of the wide smile

That last awhile

Secrets of what feel

Secrets I can’t conceal

Secrets I know

Secrets I’ll always show

Secrets only God will tell

Secrets He knows well

Peaceful Living

Seeing another day

Cherishing it in every way

Walking a mile

To see a beautiful smile

Knowing the journey

Is meant for you only

Talking with God

Giving Him a wink and nod

Sitting perfectly still

Accepting His will

Sharing your dreams

Until you burst at the seams

Always being kind

Finding peace of mind

Learning to love

Like heaven above

Continuing to grow

As you share what you know

Finding a place

Filled with God’s grace

Knowing what’s real

Knowing what you can’t conceal

Is worth giving

And is part of peaceful living

Passage Of Time

During the passage of time

We remember our prime

The lessons we learned

The things we earned

The God we trust

The one who stayed with us

What we used to fear

What we held dear

The tender touch

That meant so much

And the new day

We cherish in every way

During the passage of time

We begin to grow

As we share what we know

We see blessings granted

We water the seeds we planted

Everything’s set in stone

God never leaves us alone

We learn to love

Like heaven above

We stay strong

We see where we belong

And we find a place

Filled with guidance and grace

During the passage of time
