I'M GLAD NO ONE TOLD ME...by b. Malin

I'm glad no one told me that I couldn't walk on the Moon...

Or catch a Falling Star.

Or fly like a Fairy, so very, very, far.

I'm glad no one said that's Impossible To Do.

I know that I wouldn't have listened...

Would you?

I'm glad no one told me, it was a waste of my time,

Walking on the Beach way after nine.

Holding hands with my lover, while my heart skipped a beat.

I'm glad no one said this is a waste of your time.

I know that I wouldn't have listened...

Would you?

I'm glad that I was able to think my Thoughts alone...

While conjuring up Prose and Poetry in my mind,

For others to enjoy... from time to time.

I'm glad no one said it's a waste of your time.

I'll tell you about the Sun, and the Surf, and the Sand.

I'll weave a story that will be oh so grand...

I'll send you the warmth, through the words that I share,

While you snuggle up North, trying to stay warm.

With the snow coming down, creating quite a storm...

Wishing you were anywhere... but there.

As you throw another log on the fire,

While allowing my words to keep you warm.

I'm glad no one told me it was a waste of my time.

I know I wouldn't have listened...

Would you?
