Sarah's Song

The smell of her hair, warm and sweet

I breathe calmly from the touch of her feet.

Crawling into my comfort, fluffy bed.

Gives one to wonder what is going through her head.

Singing in sorrow, singing in sighs,

Looking at her and what hides in her eyes.

Sizing up strength, pulling the rope.

Pushing one, looking for and questioning hope.

Getting to the core of it she tears it open,

Making a small sound of loss then learning and coping.

Singing in sorrow, Singing in sighs,

Looking at her and what hides in her eyes.

The gentle compassion, she lets out the door,

surprises and comforts those hearts left on the floor.

Should she give in or give more?

Singing in sorrow, singing in sighs,

Looking at her and what hides in her eyes.

Leading, laughing in musical tones,

she's got the strength of an amazon deep in her bones.

Unscathed on the outside, her armour is steel,

inside her sits a heart broken and real.

Singing in sorrow, singing in sighs,
Looking at her and what hides in her eyes.

Tell her to look at the horizon,

have faith strong child,

there stays in your path the wind of the wild.

It will carry your heart and make you smile.

Singing in sorrow, singing in sighs,

Looking at her and what hides in her eyes.

Find that minute, take a deep breath,

Choose your battle, but take your rest.

Don't run too fast than your body can take.

Relish the idea of all your power and stake.

Singing in sorrow, singing in sighs,

Looking at her and what hides in her eyes.

Journey with me, sometimes taking the helm.

Know what talents and strengths you carry and have,

Will serve you well.

Singing in sorrow, singing in sighs,

Looking at her and what hides in her eyes.

Fill your sail, clean your deck.

Prepare yourself, go give 'em heck!

Your map is in your heart, seek out its treasures.

Give time each day to reflect and to measure.

Step carefully, watch for your mark, listen and hark.

You are the captain of your soul!
