Life Is Magical

Life is the result of God’s love for the soul,

Blinded by greed, pride, envy and hate,

Life’s magic is often ignored.

A pure heart is the cure for this illness.

How can a bird sing so many different beautiful songs?

What is the meaning of a sunrise and sunset?

Where does a rainbow get its colors?

Is the Black Forest really black?

Why do mother’s hugs are better than painkillers?

Why is a handmade gift better than one that’s been bought?

Are miracles really planned by God?

Why do little things make us happier than an accomplished task?

All these questions in our mind

With a loaf of knowledge, a teaspoon of determination

And an amount of attention

Is what we need to realize that life has a magical part.

Crescent Moon

Sitting atop Selena’s tiara,

It shines bright almost as the sun.

Together with the twinkling stars

She is quite a sight.

The Path

Walking along the unknown path,

You hold my hand to calm me.

Bad omens try to cover the blue sky

But your presence inspires me to have a lion heart.

Harder and harder the path has become,

Time isn’t waiting for anyone.

You always encourage me to never give up on my dream

Despite you getting old and me growing up.
