The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper - W.B. Yeats There is magic in the twinkling eyes Of a small, innocent child who smiles There is magic in the laugh of delight In a heart who sees a wonderous birth There is magic in the light of a word Focused on kindness instead of being heard There is magic in the new dawn, the star The feeling that races through a tender heart Who knows about giving without expectation Living without gratification, Feeling without awakening A need for recompence There is magic – in hopes and dreams In faith and all the little things In wonders that melt away the sorrow And remind us all that there is grace for tomorrow There is magic – in the caress of a smile Given by someone who blesses a heart With inspiration, kindness, acceptance All the love that brings assurance and affection There is magic – in the soul who knows faith Whispers a prayer and lingers in grace Knows God is alive, filling up the inside Of one who listens to His gentle spirit There is magic – in psalms and praise In new life that comes with salvation In freedom from all those things that bring pain In feeling alive to the new moment, the new way The new joy that abides in the one who prays There is magic – in the sun and rain In the dewdrop and the gentle rose In the light of the stardust night And the miracle of one shooting out of sight There is magic – in love That is alive and thriving, striving to give more Than it receives, with a open heart and sincere spirit Love that is scented with a blushing aroma of insight Inspiration and music created from the joy inside There is magic – from the brilliance of a heart Who knows that real love comes from God’s thought Of giving away a breath of life to the one who listens To the gentle, teasing urging of a feeling of expectation Love like this is the beginning of true living!
