​Color me brilliant today.
The day is off to a good start, I think,
probably because the sun is shining bright,
and I’m well rested, and have had a good night.
Or, perhaps it’s more…
but let’s just say that I’m brilliant, and leave it at that.
 
Color me happy today.
I guess I just woke up with a happy seed,
there’s been a smile on my face from the early morn
I can’t stop giggling, I’m like a newborn.
Or, perhaps it’s more…
but let’s just say that I’m happy, and leave it at that.
 
Color me fulfilled today.
I feel like the circle’s been completed, I don’t really know how,
there’s just no more empty feeling deep inside,
I want to get up and scream out “Wow”, no more hollowness to hide.
Or, perhaps it’s more…
but let’s just say that I’m fulfilled, and leave it at that.
 
Color me rich today.
I have more wealth than I could’ve ever aspired,
the money’s flowing in, my reserves are getting higher and higher,
it seems like the money-tree is growing right in front of me.
Or, perhaps it’s more…
but let’s just say that I’m rich, and leave it at that.
 
Color me in love today.
It’s funny how it worked, that I found myself this way,
after searching year after year for a clue,
I reached deep within my life and found me, in love, with you.
Or, perhaps it’s more…
but let’s just say that I’m in love with you, and leave it at that.

There’s no reason to frown.
No reason to take a sunny day and bring it down.
There’s just too much that a gift of a day can bring.
God’s given you today, he’s given you everything.

Every hour is yours to own
the seed has been set the grass has grown.
Play in the field, breathe the fresh air
kick fear to the curb, it doesn’t play fair.
Understand that the trials you face today
are just part of your journey, they help you find your way.

There’s no reason to frown,
it doesn’t help anything or anyone hands down.
It’s just a haze that clouds the sun,
that denies the truth that you and he are one.
One with God as he looks over his daughter and son.

Smile and color the world a better place to be,
give a pleasant face to everyone, especially to me.
Smile and give the world a radiant face
such a small thing to slow down its hectic pace.

Your smile is contagious, you wear it so well.
It lifts your eyes makes them gleam so bright
it causes your cheeks to blush in delight
it puts a bounce in your walk
makes your prose poetic when you talk.

As beautiful as you are, a smile makes you more
a delight to be around, never a bore.
This world can be a dark and lonely place
a smile lights another’s way, always.

Smile for me every day, I know at times it’s hard.
It wasn’t easy from where you came
it isn’t easy when others see life as just a game.
But your smile is a tribute to what and who you are.
Your smile is your grace, your proof that you’ve come so far.

What’s in a smile?
Everything, it bears the soul.
It comes from deep inside,
from a place where it just can’t hide.
It builds your strength and puts you on sacred ground.
​A smile is so much…so much more than a frown turned upside down.

There’s joy in delivering my promises to you,
I promised so many things, I seriously had a doubt,
I just love you so much, I just don’t want you living without.

I promised you the heavens and all the stars above,
All the constellations playing in the sky,
I promised that they’d all be yours, you never questioned why,
I wished you had doubted me and let me say no more,
You’ve been waiting patiently, waiting at my door.

I wish I never promised you, everything from A to Z,
I know how disappointed you are, that it didn’t come from me.

I wished you wealth way beyond compare, gold, myrrh and frankincense,
Endless mines from where, I get my gold to share,
A beautiful mansion and a Bentley to boot,
Beautiful gardens and courtyards, you wander under foot.

I promised you children with the passing of time,
The product of who and what we are, we could leave behind,
The fruit was not forthcoming, it withered on the vine,
I now have no children to offer you, just my body and my mind.

I told you that my body would never betray you, it was yours alone,
My intentions were pure and honorable, until I strayed from home.
She caught me at my weakest point, on a cold and lonely night,
It was just a foolish act, now I live with guilt despite.

I promised that my mind would always be on you,
I guess I didn’t understand as my intentions were true blue,
It was all the stuff, never enough, just work as it unfolds
That made me a bit crazy insane, now that I am getting old.

I wished I never promised you, everything from A to Z,
I know how disappointed you are, that it didn’t come from me.

There is one promise that I made, that I’ll never seek to deny,
It’s what’s in my heart, when I look at you, that will never pass me by,
​
So you can pass on all the others, my love is now rooted as it should.
I have great joy in delivering just this one promise that I made:
That I’ll love you forever, and I’ll take that to my grave.

It was a gentle passing,
Like a leaf blowing in the wind,
You were there,
I was unaware
Then you were gone again.

I was unprepared by what
You brought to me that sunny day,
You broke my stride when I tried to hide,
Then again you went away.
Are you real,
Or is my imagination,
Running away from me?
Do I bide my time,
And let night’s rhyme,
Take me where I need to be?

I know you’re real now,
‘Cause you’re with me once again,

At the days' beginning, there at the end
You’re my one, my only, true friend.

You’ve changed my life,
You’re my dream, my wife.
