Your Inner Song
Be thankful for each morning's sunrise,
See beauty in nature's reveal,
That beauty is also inside you,
Open up and see how you feel,
Let kindness be part of your being,
Make someone else smile everyday,
Even if darkness surrounds them,
Your compassion will light up their way,
Show grace and humility always,
Be patient and loyal and true,
Don't try to be all to the many,
But always be you to the few,
Stand firm at times of challenge,
Maintain your wisdom and poise,
Be attuned to nature's rhythm,
Amid life's trials and noise,
Be proud of the love you are giving,
Spread it equal with strangers and kin,
Your resolve will sometimes be tested,
But your strength will come from within,
Don't dwell on mistakes or regrets now,
Or dread what tomorrow might bring,
Let this moment be all that consumes you,
And may the world hear your inner voice sing.
