PICTURES
Close your eyes and picture
Happy children round a tree.
Observe their smiling faces
As they sing and laugh with glee.
Now picture glowing embers
In an open hearth, and then
Just picture you and picture me.
Do you remember when?
Remember when the cares of life
Were furthest from our minds?
When to the snares and cares each day
We really were quite blind?
Let's cling to pictures such as these
When we are feeling down.
It make life so much easier
To laugh and love, not frown.
