Forever Young

TO BE A
It is to have a SPIRIT SHINING through everyday
It is to BELIEVE in LOVE
To BELIEVE in BELIEF
To WALK BAREFOOT in the PARK
To CATCH A BUTTERFLY - then SET IT FREE
It is to be so LITTLE, that ELVES can WHISPER in your ear
It is to turn PUMPKINS into COACHES
MICE into HORSES
LOWNESS into LOFTINESS
And NOTHING into EVERYTHING
It is to PICK the first DANDELION
That GLOWS IN THE SUN
To SWING to the TOP OF THE TREES just for FUN
To TASTE the FIRST SNOWFLAKE
To PLAY with the HOSE
To JUMP in the PUDDLES
And WIGGLE your TOES

So go RUN IN THE SUNSHINE
And WALK IN THE RAIN
And RE-LIVE YOUR CHILDHOOD
ALL OVER AGAIN!

HAPPY NEW YEAR - MAY 2024 BLESS YOU ALL WITH ABUNDANCE, GOOD HEALTH AND ABIDING LOVE

This particular poem was written by Catherine Simpson, a painter from London Ontario. She has produced a “Forever Young” series of paintings. In her own words “I continue to try and capture those special memories of childhood that we can all share. Hopefully the stories I tell will trigger at least one personal memory for you of your family or your own childhood days. Rediscovering those special times in our lives should help to brighten up each and every day ahead - and remind us to let our hearts - Be Forever Young! In the attic of every grownups heart joyful memories of youth are safely tucked away waiting to be discovered. My art attempts to light the way.”

Happy New Year Star. Love and light to you always.
