- The
Brightest of Gems

- Robins singing
against a blue orange sky,
- sunshine sparkling
into a brand new day.
- Silent
screams giving way to a burst of tears,
- this moment
wraps all of our fears.
Joy
comes with the morning dew,
awakening
of hope that springs anew.
- Challenges
to action, words caught up in time
- another
light has dawned into our glass.
- Our loves perfection,
culmination and
- poetry in motion
this flower in bloom.
- Rainbows
shower our hearts with gladness,
- our souls
have been renewed.
Let
your heart always be with the eagles,
and
your ears filled with the words of the elders.
- Let your eyes
gaze upon both past and future,
- and your feet
ever moving forward.
Let
your hands always be open to giving,
and
your back never fear to strain.
- Let your soul
constantly dwell with angels,
- and your being
never leave the poor.
Let
your journey always lead to new horizons,
and
your words be honest, thoughtful and true.
- Let your life
be complete with love,
- and your living
be filled with compassion.
- Let us
love you and teach you,
- as you
teach us of love.
