                                              I ARISE TODAY

                                            I arise today
                                            With paper and pen                                    
                                            To write of daffodils
                                            Seen in the glen
                                            To write of the birds
                                            High in the sky
                                            Mornings at seven
                                            And a baby's soft cry

                                            I arise today
                                            With paper and pen
                                            To write of heroes I've known 
                                            Both women and men
                                            Who go about their tasks
                                            From day to day
                                            With a song in their hearts
                                            Changing work into play

                                           
I arise today
                                            With paper and pen
                                            With encouraging words
                                            And an unabashed grin
                                            With an optim
ist's heart
                                            And a spirit grown tall
                                            Ready for the challenges
                                            That beckon us all
                                                                      
                                            I arise today
                                                                                                                    With paper and pen
                                                                         Wishing the best                                                                                                               For foe or for friend                                            
                                                      
                                            Wishing you sunbeams
                                            And stardust too
                                            May God in his heaven
                                            Smile upon you
