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. (c) Jasmine Paul 11-16-2014
