take my hand

come take my hand
& share my smile

blossom into a new
beautiful person
confident
in what you want to be
free
into life's fullest possibilities

watch
& listen to the children
they have the secret
in their being

the secret is the secret
of life itself
& is revealed
in the way they grow

as a seed each begins
unfolding from within
blooming forth
as a delicate flower

your journey into life
is in the direction
of your choosing

look to the sunrise
clear your eyes
grow in the light

remembering that the faith
we have had in tomorrow
comes true today

for yesterday
is passed away
& tomorrow is now
