She said
Don’t take
The little moments
For granted
Because they
Are often the ones
That truly matter
Breathe in the
Fresh air
Take in a
Sunrise
Or sunset
And be sure
To dance
Whenever you
Feel the beat.

She said
Don’t ever
Let your inner child
Die
Because she’s so
Much a part of
You
And she
Shows you
How to enjoy
The precious
Moments
And she reminds
You
How to play.

She said
Don’t
Let hope
Die its a
One of our
Greatest gifts
So give it freely.

She said
Don’t forget
To laugh
Its like a healing balm
A medicine for
The soul.
