Breathe In the Sunshine

Words are too often spoken When silence is what we seek, When all we really want Is affection, humble and meek. When just the right touch At just the right time, Helps us to stop And breathe in the sunshine. It helps us to be thoughtful Of the beauty that God brings, Like butterflies and flowers And all sorts of other things. And when time seems to slow down That it might even stop, And your eyes are fixed On the sunrise up top, Take in this precious moment Take in the color and the sound, Feel the wind in your hair And the warmth all around. And when you find yourself Lost within time, Don’t forget to stop And breathe in the sunshine.
