Be all That You Can. Ode for Living
Audrey's passion for connecting with nature is magnified in her articles about mother earth."Going to nature is like going home."
I Will Sing While I Can
I will be all that I can be
Going forward with certainty
And if I’m given a lime
I’ll take one step at a time
I will sing while I can.
I will make my own music
I will dance to the sound
I’ll compose my own melody
I don’t care who’s around
I will sing while I can.
Music is my Passion
Forever young, I 'll not act my age
When tomorrow comes, I will turn a new page
I will dangle my toes at the waters edge
And laugh when I want, that is my pledge
I will sing while I can.
I refuse to be pressured to someone’s belief
And I know at times, I’m a comic relief
I am a free spirit, I clear my own path
A positive woman, perhaps a bit daft
I will sing while I can.
I Miss my Little Shih Tzu
And as for my Clancey, he'll always rule
He gets what he wants, he's nobody's fool
Neglected from birth he had a bad start
I brought him home and gave him my heart
He sings while he can.
I’ll be all that I can with each passing day
And nothing, no nothing will get in my way
My wings spreading wide, they lift me up high
I’m doing my best with each breath I sigh
I’ll sing while I can.
I will give thanks with each passing day
For all good things that come my way
For loving children loyal and giving
Sharing their life to make mine worth living
And we sing while we can.
I will rise in the morning and live for that day
No sorrow or troubles to get in my way
With a prayer in my heart I'll fill someone's need
And look for a way to do a good deed
I'll sing while I can.
Through Joy and Through Sorrow, I Still Sing
I will sing while I can before I pass on
I will gather my troubles and make them a song
I will live serving others in all that I do
As Shakespeare once said
“To thine own self be true”
I will sing while I can.
Note ~ My beloved and precious pet, Clancey passed on March 20, 2012. He filled my life for 12 years with unconditional love.
“If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn't sit for a month.”
