“Tired eyes repose, yet in dream attune
Better days ahead, agrees the evening’s wise moon,
As the chorus of stars rise, twinkle, and festoon.
I’ve faced the darkness with light and with love;
Fallen to the sun, then risen above,
Whether storming rain, or enduring tide;
I’ve never humbled behind clouds to hide.
Don’t cower to fear, and never lose sight,
Your power of will exceeds any plight.”

“It's a gift of peace, to know through darkness sees the light
Like the sterling moon, gleams bright up high in the eventide
Now's the time
To take every moment on the fly
Gonna look life straight in the eye
And make each and every dream come alive
Now's the time”

“Strive in stride like the resilient wildflowers that begin each day by turning to face the rolling sunrise.
Even when the weight of the world has cemented their original path, they still rise through cracks in the sidewalk to find the sun and shine, never putting off until tomorrow because they inherently know, now’s the time. For it is with every sunrise that hope is born for change with new opportunities to make dreams come alive”

“Somber eyes ponder, what this world will be?
Better days ahead, sighs the wind swiftly;
Flit, airy as my glides, fanciful, free,
Change is in the air, summer’s warming spree;
Embracing days chaotic, frozen, still,
Frosted with fear, surrendered to fate’s will.
For amidst nature’s tranquil seclusion;
Strives humanity lost in confusion.”

“A single day is not enough, to honor all that’s you;
You gave me a lifetime, a gift to which none can compare.
A million stars, with all their might, could never shine so true;
As your pure heart, and lovely smile, when speaking words of care.
Nurturing hands, you brought up life, maternal sacrifice,
When days of darkness set, you help to see the dawn gleam.
You’re the strength I lean on, when my own does not suffice,
Wisdom laden grace, you’ve shown the light for much to be seen.
So I’ll take this day, to speak loud from heart, of all that’s true;
I love you, mom. Is all I’ll say, for nothing more will ever do.”
