A melody plays deep within my heart
It has its own style and form of art
The joy within the flowing sounds
With angel's wings my being surrounds
A peace has come and my mind rests at ease
Like the soft flowing seeds on the latest breeze
Planted by nature their growth to achieve
Like trying times only help one to believe
Years of tears, silence, and pain
All washed away with the soft spring rain
Looking forward to what tomorrow will bring
New growth, more happiness: the beauty of spring
Another year has flown on the wings of time
The new one is refreshing like taste of fine wine
Once more I thank heaven for all that has been
Blessed am I in seeing again what was foreseen
The story continues and around every bend
Is a new reason to believe it will never end
So continue to play, music of my soul
And watch eagerly as it helps make others whole.
