fireflies

if stella hadn't disappeared,

around the house last night,

i would have missed the fireflies,

twinkling so bright.

i could have gotten mad at her,

and just gone back inside,

instead i followed curiously,

and was happily surprised.

when things are out of our control,

just smile and let them go,

though something might seem negative,

we never really know.

sometimes when things go wrong,

other things go right,

and bring you happy gifts,

like fireflies at night.

beauty true

outer beauty fades,

while inner beauty grows,

it's not enhanced by makeup,

or covered up by clothes.

it's not recognized in passing,

it's not seen from afar,

you will only truly see it,

by knowing someone's heart.

to see another's beauty,

you must know her soul,

that's where you will discover,

her beauty true, doth grow.

if you had a blog, i would read it each day,

if you had a website, in my favorites you'd stay,

if you wrote a column, or published a book,

i'd tell all my friends, where to take a look.

if you were on facebook, i'd be your friend,

if you sold things online, my money i'd spend,

for all of these things, connect me to you,

you're a part of my heart, and i love what you do.

wag your tail, it's wednesday

wag your tail,

it's wednesday,

do a little dance,

smile your biggest smile,

take a little chance.

wag your tail,

it's wednesday,

go out for a walk,

get a little exercise,

call a friend and talk.

wag your tail,

it's wednesday,

make it really count,

life lived to the fullest,

that's what it's all about.
