“When I first came to be,

Twas he, who breathed life into me.

And with the breath of love instilled within me—

From land to land and sea to sea—

I vowed to speak but words of love

As gratitude to he who dwells above.

For love should be celebrated everyday

No matter what anyone might say.

Love till your soul ascends

And then love some more.

Love till your heart drowns

And from the excess, pours.”

“If you ever find yourself looking for a miracle,

look at the grass growing beneath your feet,

at blossoms turning to fruit,

at the tiny acorn that grows into the giant oak.

Nature is a world of miracles.

You are one of them.”
