Clowns Prayer~
As I stumble through this life,
help me to create
more laughter than tears.
Never let me become so indifferent,
that I will fail to see the wonder
in the eyes of a child.
Never let me forget
that my total effort is to cheer people,
make them forget,
at least momentarily,
the unpleasantness in their lives.
and in my final moment,
may I hear You whisper:
"When you made My people smile,
you made Me smile."

"Dance like no one's watching.
Love like you'll never be hurt.
Sing like no one's listening.
And live like heaven on earth."

The wind, ever changing, ever present
Summer's gentle breeze
Spring's crisp gust
Fall's blustery gale
Winter's icy storm
The wind, ever changing, eternal
A tree reaching to the clear blue sky
Its green leaves rustling in the wind
Leaves of every size and shape
Glistening in the golden sun
Falling, swirling in the wind
Scattering across the grass
Nestling among the flowers
Blowing in the breeze
We are the leaves dancing in the wind,
and the wind is God

A Friend
A friend takes your hand in their hand
And together you walk along a flowered garden path
Until you step upon the ocean's sunwarmed sand
A friend's arms enclose, and you are warm
Our flow of tears halted
You feel safe from all harm
The eyes of a friend sparkle bright
Their smile always warming your heart
And you are strengthened with their love's light
The beauty of a friend radiates as a sunset's red and gold
It refreshes as raindrops on an alpine meadow
And when all is told, they inspire timid to bold
A friend sees your faults and still gives love
And when you wander and roam, a friend is still called home
When all seems lost, a friend is the warm sunshine from above
Through the years, a friend is the foundation of the soul
A friend is your strength, joy, and oasis in life's storm
A friend's love goes with you when all else is left behind
