plant your feet firmly down recite the lesson of the day do re mi fa so la ti do understand the hypocrite lie to the man hidden in the rain speak to the people of the sand learn the ways of elves play with the gentle fairies take caution with those who dare not believe in miracles become a legend in your life save the mind of ONE soul brighten a smile, decorate a lonely Christams tree put up with the crying baby grin and bear it listen to your boss today enjoy time spent with animals become a child, play in the mud sleep in a bed of roses carefully remove the thorns take your money, give it away now children, what have we learned today?a time when i was desperate for innocence..things seemed to be lost and all i wanted was for people to realize the simple beauty in life Nov. 30, 1999 Written January 14th, 2002 © on Jan 14 2002 01:29 PM PST, Nichole   18 • 0 • 12
