Wanted to Share This....

I found this tucked away in one of my books (yes, I'm actually starting to do a little bit of spring cleaning......the operative word being little) :) and after reading it again, I thought I would share it with you. I guess this is why I saved it!

When the "storms" of life
gather darkly ahead
I think of these wonderful words
that I once read

And I say to myself
as threatening clouds hover
"Don't fold your wings and run for cover"

But like the eagle
spread wide your wings
and soar far above
the troubles life brings

For the eagle knows
that the higher he flies
the more tranquil and brighter
become the skies

And there is nothing in life
we were ever asked to bear
that we can't soar above
on the wings of a prayer

And in looking back over
the storm you passed through
You'll find you gained strength
and new courage too.

For in facing life's storms
with an eagle's wings
You can fly far above
Earth's small petty things.
