Harmony

I want to help people,
and someday live by the sea.
I want peace, love,
laughter, and harmony.

My dream is to make a difference:
Heal the sick,
Comfort the dying,
Spread the laughter,
Touch a life,
Light up a room,
Live life to its fullest.

This is what I’ll do.

And when I lay my head on the pillow
for my final, peaceful sleep,
my last dream will make me smile.

They’ll say:
She changed my life,
She brought me joy,
She made me laugh.

I want no one to weep.
