Decorations of the Heart

 

Like a trophy room

Adorned with treasured keepsakes

Memories on the wall of your heart

Places and faces of friends we make

 

As children laugh and play

Friendships begin to grow

Fifty years later

Down Memory Lane they go

 

Special events in your life

Moments never to forget

All there for endless review

Rock solid, a smile is set

 

Babies being born

Elders say their last good-byes

All part of life

Even the tears we cry

 

But these decorations

Are yours to keep

They’ll fill your heart

As treasures so deep

 

So cast your gaze upon

Works of beautiful art

Let a smile come from each gift

Decorations of the heart
