Sparkle, Shine and Smile
love, I say often to my family and friends
peace, I give out like candies
serenity dwells within me
tranquility leaves my lips
generous with compliments and tips
peace, I wish for everyone
courage, I put in my left pocket
strength rests in my right pocket
patience, patience I say to myself each day
joy is when with my cat I play
believe, believe, believe is my meditation mantra
imagine it, and write a poem about it is my motto
hope, because it can move mountains
dream big, and my dreams may come true
protect the birds that fly, all creatures and cats that mew
faith, in the Lord humbles me
pray, because it makes me feel good each morn'
wish, upon a shimmering star at night is something I do
kindness to all that I meet costs me nothing
cherishing, all my memories is important to me
clean, the river and ocean of debris
sparkle, like the sun is my motto
shine, like a star is a good thing I do
smile, because it makes me happy
