The Happiness You Give

The Happiness You Give
Poet: Julie Hebert, © 2012
What can I say about you,
And the happiness you give.
You've taught me so many things,
Like being able to forgive.
You've taught me how to love,
And this I can't thank enough.
Even more important of that,
That you taught me to love myself.

You've taught me people are kind,
Yet some can be quite mean,
To look past the outer shell,
Child, adult or teen.
You've taught me do the things,
That I never would before.
Life is too short to hold off,
It's time to go out and explore.

You've taught me to believe in myself,
That I can do anything I want.
If I put my mind to it,
I can accomplish anything I want.
What else can I say,
About everything you've taught?
You've taught me about life's happiness,
And this will not be forgot.

So from the bottom of my heart,
Thank you for being you.
And teaching me everything you know,
And also how to stay true.

Your Smile

Your Smile
Poet: Julie Hebert, (c)2012

Your smile lights my way through life,
And keeps me warm inside.
It reminds me that people are good,
Especially when their snide.

Your smile helps me though each day,
Knowing I'll soon see if again.
It even makes me want to smile,
Even when I'm in pain.

Your smile can take my moods away,
And help me to see it another way.
It reminds me not too take things so hard,
And so seriously every day.

Your smile I am so very thankful,
And of course for you as well.
You always know just what to say,
And never let me dwell.

So thank you so much for all your smiles,
And for loving me each day.
Life can be very tough but thankfully,
I've got you to help shine my way.
