Favorite Quote:
Far away in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead.
Louisa May Alcott


Standing at a Precipice
The waves flow back and forth.
Sand between my toes,
The sunlight’s streaming through
A clear blue sky.

Sand between my toes,
I breathe in the ocean air.
A clear blue sky
Looking down on the sparkling blue water.

I breathe in the ocean air,
Standing at a precipice
Looking down on the sparkling blue water
As the winds gently tug at my hair.

Standing at a precipice,
I have a sense of peace
As the winds gently tug at my hair
And give me a sense of hope.

I have a sense of peace.
The waves flow back and forth
And give me hope.
The sunlight’s streaming through.
