Don't ever waste your time
Down on the shady street;
To yourself be ever so kind
Please direct your feet.
You are young. Life is so new
A brilliant mind to spare;
And a lots of good you can do
For those in need of care.
The world is waiting for you
To stand on higher ground;
The human race is pleading too
So please don't let us down.
Look to crest of the hill
Never to doubt our trust;
And let it be your humble will
Never abound of selfish lust.
For it will cause you to stray
To mines of false gold;
With a humble heart ever pray
The wishes of a youthful soul.

So Lovely by Baba Griot

I thought that I was
Dreaming, but it was
Real, you were an
Angel in disguise
From heaven, that had
Me hypnotized. You sat
By that window of sparkling
Sunlight that put you
On exhibit.  You were exposed
To the world, you were dressed
In your spring/summer
Eyes with a radiant smile,
That stimulated my mind, body and
Soul holistically.  Your presence
Put me in a state of ecstasy, you always
Set me free.  I am elated,
I am exhilarated. I am thrilled and
Filled with love for you.

It’s the little things that count
It’s not the giving of a great amount,
It’s the gift, not the price
It’s the little words that matter,
When it comes to mending a heart;
It’s the winning of a battle,
That proves you worthy of your part
It's not the crest of the hill
That’ll give you broadest view;
It's the mastering of will,
When you can rise to start anew.
It's not the race you can run
To add a star to your crown;
It’s the little deeds you've done
To help others make the round
So if you want to be a success
Now is the time the way to find;
If you really want to be blessed…
Build for others as you climb.
