I wrote this years ago, but I still want my life to be a beautiful song...so here it is!
SINGING
A beautiful song
Will sweep you along;
It’s tune may take over your heart,
And if you start singing,
Your life will be ringing
With deep joy that sets you apart.
Life sometimes, it seems,
Is filled with great dreams,
And these dreams are what make life worth living.
The songs that you sing
And the gladness they bring
Are part of the taking and giving.
Sometimes the haze
Of gray, unnumbered days
Seems gloomy, and sad, and all wrong—
Then I find myself saying
On my knees, when I’m praying,
“May my life be a beautiful song.”

PoetryThis is poetry about normal, ordinary life. Some of it will rhyme. Some of it won't. But I sincerely hope that anyone who stumbles across this will enjoy reading them as much as I enjoy writing them.
