LIFE IS A TAPESTRY

A time for giving, a time for reflection,
Thanksgiving is when we share affection;
today and every day, rejoice by living,
a time for reflection, a time for giving.

Life is a tapestry, forever brightly hued,
a gentle nature evokes a friendly mood,
but a home provides a caring chemistry,
forever brightly hued, life is a tapestry.

Don’t watch the clock, listen to your heart,
savor each cherished memory a la carte;
compel yourself to stand tall, take stock,
listen to your heart, don’t watch the clock.

Don’t wilt to fear, take one more chance,
hold her in your arms for one more dance;
peer in her eyes, whisper softly in her ear,
take one more chance, don’t wilt to fear.
