"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." --Dr. Seuss


When words can flow like rivers do,
When people talk in magic rhymes,
When stars inspire hour-long songs,
That's when I'll stop keeping time.

When animals roam the hillsides free,
When birds soar beyond the sun,
When humans heal the wilted plans,
That's when I'll stop keeping time.

When clouds form shapes at a child's wish,
When flowers bloom in winter's chill,
When long-ranged dreams came to life,
That's when I'll stop keeping time.
