As dawn's gentle fingers paint the sky,
A canvas of hope unfurls on high,
February's sixteenth day arrives,
A Sunday to nourish our inner lives.
Like a river of kindness, flowing free,
Compassion's current sweeps through thee,
Each ripple a chance to lift and heal,
A touch of grace that we all can feel.
In the garden of your heart, plant seeds
Of love and empathy for others' needs,
Watch them blossom with morning's light,
A bouquet of joy, a wondrous sight.
This day's a gift, wrapped in golden beams,
A chance to weave your fondest dreams,
With open arms and spirits high,
Let kindness be your lullaby.
So rise and shine, embrace the new,
A world of wonder awaits for you,
In every smile, in every deed,
You'll find the strength you'll ever need.
Rise and Shine @ Sunday, February 16th
