I Hope
( I HOPE )
I hope you surf the waves from the ocean,
Big and small.
I hope you watch the sunset,
From a mountain straight and tall.
I hope you sing a song to the angels,
Loud and clear.
I hope you’ll always try new things,
Never giving into fear.
I hope you fall in love,
With one who makes your world go ‘round.
I hope that if you fall out,
Your feet stay on the ground.
I hope that you can understand,
That true love waits for you.
That you may have to wait awhile
But when it comes it will be true.
I hope you feel the sand,
Hot on your toes on summer’s day.
I hope you learn that sandals,
Help keep the pain away.
I hope you find a rainbow,
And realize it was worth the rain.
I hope that through your journey,
You will learn to balance smiles with pain.
I hope that you will realize,
Life isn’t always on your side.
I hope you know when hope is lost,
In me you can confide.
I hope that your glowing smile,
Brings someone out of gloom.
I hope you taste your life,
With mare that just a spoon.
I hope that when you’re lost,
Your also one to find.
And I hope that your hand,
Never grows too big for mine.
I hope you watch the stars shoot by,
Upon a grassy hill.
I hope you know I love you,
Always have and always will.
