The Gift That I Give You

The gift that I give you Is living within you The warmth of a bright summer day The comfort of living Is born of the giving That comes in a wonderful way When two hearts are rising Their love is surprising For hate is surmising their fall But hope is much stronger And joy is much longer When living is loving at all The way that I love you Is stirring above you The gift of an angel in flight My wings are the reason My joy is in season For giving you shelter tonight.

Thank you Jo. A little bird of happiness, just brightened up my day. She sang a little song to me, and hurried on her way. When you are filled with happiness, you have to let it out. For that is just the way of life, and what it's all about. Bryan
