Life holds promise
In the smile that brightens the day
The kind hand stretched forth in aid
In the morning mist
That graces the grass and cools my ankles
It's in the robin singing
And in the morning sun shining on my face
Life holds beauty
In the eyes of a child
And the flight of a bird's wing
It's in a rose blooming
A leaf falling
Snow settling
Life holds meaning
In the painting that takes your breath away
In the song that makes you weep
And it's in the poetry that moves you to your cores
Life is worth living
