For every petal you pluck from a daisy,
You've granted one
measure of love.
For every rainbow you find with two ends,
I wish
you two stars from above.
For every tear you brush from a cheek,
I promise you kindness
will follow.
Wherever you walk, under rainbows or stars,
Over
daisies, or down lonely hollow.
For every child you play with and talk to,
I grant you one
heart full of laughter.
For every smile you place on a face,
I
promise you peace ever after.
If you think "I" am giving you priceless gifts,
Look
close at yourself and your deeds.
The gifts you earned were the
lessons you learned.
While answering other folks' needs.
