IT WAS ALWAYS THERE I have never said it -Yet-in words; But it's there. It's there whenever I notice A child's smile in a crowd, Or a rainbow shimmering Amidst clouds of cynicism. It's there whenever I worry less And dream more; Whenever I embrace Each rose in my eyes, Do the right thing, Or hold a noble thought. And it's there whenever Just knowing you Is all I require. I love you. Copyright © 1997 Raymond C. Sison. All rights reserved.
