Take Wing
You have a tiny smile when you see the world
Your eyes ablaze with stories untold
Taking in the sights with curiosity and wonderment
And a heart full of merriment
In that beautiful heart lies a tiny corner
That is laden with doubt and fear
About the future and what it holds near
Causing your beautiful eyes to, sometimes, shed a tear
The world is unkind with judgements made
Calling you a stone when you are actually a Jade
But what lies in you is for you to see
Lush green meadows and flourishing trees
Tap into these greens and see the world anew
Garner strength from the positivism in you
You will be what you want to be
If you learn to see your resident beauty
So dust your wings and fly, my child!
Soar above the world, you have nothing to hide
Stand firm and lead, and create history
And tomorrow, the world will know you, and tell your story
