A Heart Full of Love
Page One
Life is a time for learning.
We must learn that our Life is as important
as that of any other person on Earch,
but never more important. We must learn
that we have every right to Happiness,
yet it is up to us to find and recognize it.
We must learn that Life is not easy
nor is it permanent, others will come and go,
and often their departure will cause us pain.
We must learn to develop a positive attitude
that can handle Life's disappointments.
And we must learn that in order to find Love,
we must look inside our own Heart.
Fore if we can't find it within,
we will never find it without.

I think I would rather possess
Eyes that know no sight
Ears that know no sound
Hands that know no touch
Than a Heart
That knows no Love
Page Three
I will know Love
No matter waht circumstances
The World may give me
No matter how many people
Choose to turn and walk away
I will find Love
In the laughter of little children
In the gentleness of animals
In the beauty and glory of Nature
In the knowledge of myself
And when my day comes
That I find someone who does not turn away
I will give Love
With all my Heart

There is Someone Special
In this World for me
For that's the way I believe
It was meant to be
So I search every face
In the crowd I see
For there is Someone Special
And the only reason I can think of
That she's not here with me
Is she must have turned left
At Albuquerque
Page Five
Have you ever noticed
That the words
"Goodbye"
"I'm sorry"
"I love you"
Are so easy to pronounce
... Yet so hard to say
Page Six
If you can just turn
And walk away
And feel there's nothing more
You need to say
And you do not feel a tearing
In your Heart
If you can so easily
Forget about me
And all the things
I tried to be
Then I guess there was really no reason
For you to stay
Page Seven
I don't think it was selfish
That I wanted to be with you
That I wanted to share your laughter
That I wanted to protect you from your fears
That I wanted to be a part of your Life
But I admit I had my needs
I needed understanding
I needed someone to hold
I needed someone to talk to
For you can only hold a pillow
For so long
And there is only so much you can say
To a dog

We must realize that in the realm of Mankind
There are no kings, queens, or presidents
No judges, officers, doctors, preachers, or teachers
Not even fathers, mothers, daughters, or sons
There are only Human Beings
Who wear these titles
And no matter what little
A person may wear
From time to time
He or she will make
Some very
Human Mistakes
Page Nine
A child does not have to be taught
How to be happy
Or the ways of Love
It is fear, hatred, and prejudice
That have to be taught
And from the condition of the World
We can see
That unfortunately
There are some very good teachers
Page Ten
What greater Lesson
Can a Human Being learn
Than to guide his words and actions
To be considerate
Of the needs and feelings
Of all the other occupants
Of this World
Page Eleven
Death is not the Opposite of Life
It is a part of Life
A part we've not yet explored
And thus do not understand
And it is only natural to fear
What we do not understand
But with the right attitude
We can make Life beautiful
With this same attitude
Can Death not be the same
Page Twelve
Maybe I didn't solve
Any of the World's problems today
But I did try to conduct my Life
In such a way
That I did not add to them
Page Thirteen
If I should come out ahead
At the end of this game called Life
It won't be because of my fancy style
Or that I knew how to play it well
But more because I just kept getting up
And plodding along
Till the World finally just got tired
Or knocking me down
Page Fourteen
If it's just a Game
That we play
Before we leave this Earth
For the Heavens above
Then surely the one who wins
Is the one who learns
How to have
A Life full of Living
And a Heart full of Love
