You

Hold yourself in high esteem
and clear a path to walk
Gather al the world you may
and pause before you talk

Only one and one alone
will know the one called you
Considering a new approach
and not as others do

Be proud of all your gifts to share
be them great or small
All await the joy they bring
all await your call

Magnificent is who we are
in each our separate way
A miracle put forth again
with each and every day

Be patient with the one you are
and slowly you will see
The gift of life unfolding now
as only you could be
