Just a Moment--

Hush quietly, just a moment; Just breathe, believe receive this endorsement; The sun does shine after the rain And it's spring and grasses and flowers grow; Just a moment; ~ A baby crawls; Some months later he walks the halls; As a order learns to play plastic/rubber balls; Hush quietly, just a moment; Just breathe, believe receive this endorsement; Just a moment; ~ You're in your recliner; Just a little tired; Summertime doorbell rings; Slowly you rise ring-ring-ringVerbally you sigh...just a moment;
