Favorite Quote:
“The poet's job is to put into words those feelings we all have that are so deep, so important, and yet so difficult to name, to tell the truth in such a beautiful way, that people cannot live without it.”

Run through the sunshine
I wonder what you'll find
Run through the meadow
Let all your worries go

Feel the warmth on your face
Let your thoughts vanish without a trace
Feel the breeze tickle your skin
Forget where you've been

Hear the wind whisper their secrets
Do you promise you will keep them
Hear each little bird that sings
Listen to the beat of their fragile wings

Forget where you're from
Forget what you've done
Don't let bad things drag you under
Just appreciate the world and all its little wonders
