<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><b>RaccOOn eYES</b></span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">I don’t know whether to miss you or let you go</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">you can be so damn cold</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">words confess your love </span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">its what our hearts seem to know </span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">but time and distance creep in</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">and the doubt begins to grow</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">when we’re together it’s beautiful simplicity</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">but as soon as that door shuts</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">my heart sinks in complicity</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">feeling like a stranger </span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">an outsider</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">the silence gets wider</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">with eyes near shut I put on blinders </span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">wondering if there’s a place for me</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">loving you persistently</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">decidedly</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">like a loud noise</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">annoyingly</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">but will you hear it</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">this heart of mine has spirit</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">like sounding brass and tinkling cymbal</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">yet patience joy and love resembles </span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">I’ll miss you now a little longer</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">That always makes my heart grow fonder</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">building muscle</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">getting stronger</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">will you benefit from my plight</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">and jump in with me in sheer delight</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">or with raccoon eyes</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">disappear into the night?</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;<br />

<h2 style="text-align:center;"></h2>
<h2 style="text-align:center;"><strong>YOU are amazing &#8211; You rock! Here&#8217;s why:</strong></h2>
<p style="text-align:left;">1. You have never given up on the areas that are most important to you. You have persistence.</p>
<p>2. You see the big picture in your life and go for what is most personally rewarding and meaningful.<br />
3. You have learned to turn your lemons into lemonade, creating assets where there could have been deficits.<br />
4. You provide personal support to your best friends, and go the extra distance when they need you.<br />
5. You struggle with the tough issues in life and do your level best to make the right decisions.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">You are awesome because you are aware, you care, you give, you do your best, you push forward, you don&#8217;t take it lying down!</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Big hug and lots of love in this beautiful day &#8211; take this mojo and spread it around&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">XOXO<br />
Sandy</p>
