Four Leaf Clovers

You are like a four leaf clover,

You and different and unique,

You heave talents, you have gifts,

That no one else can beat.

No one finds a four lead clover,

Just to toss it all away.

They admire it's special beauty,

That it brings in it's own way.

People like four leaf clovers,

Because they are so rare,

And it is not quite so special,

To find a three leaf cover there.

Three leaf clovers are all the same,

And not so hard to find,

But four lead clovers are something special,

And brig different thoughts to mind.

And you are like a four leaf clover,

No one is just quite the same,

Don't pull off your special forth leaf,

Shine it in your special way!

Not everyone will notice,

At least not right away,

But you can't find a four leaf clover,

Right at the start of the day.

Four lead clovers are not easy to find,

But it's not their choice to hide away,

So choose to stand up and stand out,

And keep on shining today.

You never know

You never know how much you impact,

Others in your special way,

You never know your unique difference,

That you send out everyday,

You never know what kind of ripple,

Comes from what you did or meant,

And you never know what kind of tear,

Comes from what you made or said.

You never know what your example,

Might have done for a friend,

You never know what kind of seed,

Fell into their flower bed.

You never know what kind if answer,

You were to someone's prayer,

You never know what help you give,

By what you did or what you share.

You never know what happens,

On the other side,

You never know what blooms,

In the other heart or mind.

And since you never know,

What comes from those things,

Be someone's good example,

Be someone else's wings.

Ride Outside

The grass is a vibrant green.

The sky's undeniably blue.

The sun's shining bright,

Such a beautiful sight,

I'd say I'm alright, wouldn't you? 

Barefoot I go, taking it in.

Breathing the fresh morning air.

Walking along

The birds sing their song

Freeing myself from all cares.

A couple of quails paddle past

Some slimy snails slink on by

The blossoms are bright

The dew catches light

Fluffy clouds scatter all through the sky.

Under a canopy of trees

I hear the water's melodies

The vines on the wall

Invite mystery's call

New wishes and hopes fill my dreams.

Decide to live in the moment

Time doesn't matter so much.

Look at the trees!

Feel the fresh breeze!

Let go of the bustle and rush.

Why worry when there's plenty of good?

Focus on the positive side.

Sure life has tears and frowns

It has ups and downs,

But that's what makes it a ride!
