Make Me MAG
December 23, 2015
Make me a joke so I can make people laugh.
Make me a medicine so I can cure all ills.
Make me a blanket so I can keep others warm.
Make me a shield so I can protect the frightened.
Make me a story so I can spark imaginations.
Make me a song so all can hear the music.
Make me a painting so everyone can see all the beauty.
Make me a fork so I can feed those hungry.
Make me a house so I can shelter the homeless.
Make me a candle so I can be a beacon amongst the darkness.
Make me a tool so I can help the helpless.
Make me somebody the world will always need.
