I was randomly selected to sit in while you shared your joy
to teach and try to inspire us younger children.
I never expected anything more than you just being another face I met
along the way of finding my place in the world.

I build a wall ten feet tall
to block my emotions and my fears.
but baby you are much stronger then that wall.

Life’s beauty is breathtaking when we take a moment to observe it.

Smiles spread like a wild fire
Laughter as contagious as a medical outbreak
Children run around like bees after their hive has been kicked.

Your smile tells me everything will be alright
Your hug makes me feel secure and safe
Your laugh is the music to my life

for a trip home
A place where you are known.

I see the face
The face of fear
...
For all those who cried all night because the thought it was goodbye.
For all those who said goodbye did you really mean it?
