The Spirit Lifter Queen
This is dedicated to my new friend, Hope. Thanks for keeping my spirits lifted!
A spirit lifter
Lifts up your spirit
To a higher level
Than you can get
They pull from inside
Our God given light
To share with others
As we shine so bright
Now every spirit lifter
Needs their spirits lifted too
The more their spirits are lifted
The more spirit lifting they can do
They are always so busy
Lifting the joy of others
To ever pick up their joy
And that is their druthers
There are times they notice not
That their joy has fallen down
It’s not until they see their face
To find it is wearing a frown
That’s when other spirit lifters
Will come and jump right in
To be quick as possible
As they really do save them
The Spirit Lifter Queen
I finally met and got to see
That she carries roots as strong
As a magnificent old oak tree
Her light shines so beautiful
Hope is the name we call her
As she is the picture of hope
And the root of a spirit lifter
Her roots run so very deep
And her light shines on everyone
As hope is to expect with confidence
To cherish a desire with anticipation
I feel most privileged
To have acquainted with her
As even one of her joyful giggles
Always lifts my spirits higher
When the joy bubbles up from in me
I gladly bounce them back to her
As she really is the Queen
Of all the other spirit lifters!
