Miracles Among Us

There are no miracles anymore she wiped her eyes and shut the door I saw her crying thru the screen The moments passed and in between her daugher sang upon the step The daughter sang The mother wept I turned around to gently say The miracles just went out to play They're playing ball or in the park They'll come back home when it gets dark To tell us all they did today The miracles just went out to play Their easy laughter fills the air they're running in from here and there To make an empty house a home to show us we are not alone. True miracles from up above are here amoung us, gifts of love Our eyes met thru the dusty screen a silent message passed between Some simmering spark of time eternal awoke within her heart maternal She smiled and heard her daughter sing and then she said a simple thing... Come back tomorrow, we'll have tea just you, my miracle and me.
