A wise old soul
He came to me
My mind was clouded
And I could not see

With hands so soft
And full of love
He opened my heart
And placed a dove

He spoke from his heart
Compassion in his voice
And relayed the message
“You have a choice”

In a tender whisper
He said gently to me
“It’s up to you”
“You hold the key”

“In your hands”
“Your freedom lies”
“Create something beautiful”
“Before your very eyes”

In that moment
Without a doubt I knew
It was clear to me
What I must do…….

CREATE SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL!
