Song Playing: "Lighthouse by the Sea"

Isn't it a wonder?
That life is real?
Something neglected
But something we all feel?

I stop at times
Not to just smell roses
But to remember times and parts
Of life and what it gives us

Just simple thoughts
As I stop and sometimes feel
My memories of blowing on
A daffodil...

I wonder why the sun
Can share time with the moon?
And why at night
The moon shines bright?

Not alone in the night
Yes the moon shines it's light
In the midst of stars
That share this grand sight...

That simple thought came clear
When I began to feel
My memories of blowing on
A daffodil...

Marvels of life surround us
And in that marvel lives
The One who created us...

And our sorrows abound too
But we carry on
In helping ourselves and others
To become just as strong

Not just a simple thought
That came over me

I was just realizing
What was surrounding me

Touching me
Reminding me...
Of how it can feel
When I blow

On a daffodil...

"For Terrie...because of her love for daffodils and to Pauline for her soulful inspiration and for contributing "Lighthouse by the Sea"..."
