I would tell you over and again
What I love about you
How the sparkle in your eyes lights up the world
How your big huge heart inspires me
How your dedication to the ones you love earns my respect
I would tell you once again
How your love for nature resonates through the wild woods
How your ability to overcome adversity with patience and hope brightens dark corners
How your insights and devotion to growth blaze trails in the minds around you
I would tell you once more
How your presence in this world is needed
How without you the world would be smaller, darker, colder
How without you the music would never play
The sun itself would dull
The clouds would never lift
And song itself would end
These are some of the ways I love you
How can I thank you for the joy you bring
For the light that shines through you
For the notes that become the melody
The harmony of this dissonant world
How can I thank you for staying
Who will tell you these things when I am gone
Listen to the whisper of the wind at dawn
To the ocean coming to shore
To the birds singing in the trees
Saying, “Thank you. I love you. I see you, magnificent.”
[…] I See You, Magnificent […]
