I was there when you were born I’ll be there when you die I’ll mark the moments in between Welcome to the world Congratulations, celebrate, be happy and, with love Birthdays Weddings Mother’s Day Driving test Exam success Good luck I miss you I love you Marry me Come back soon I’m sorry I didn’t mean to Button holes Daisy chains Garlands and bouquets From the lotus to the passion flower The white rose to the red I mark life’s special moments I am, of course, a flower

You can feel my warmth on chilly nights I don’t have any flames but am that invisible light   I can’t cure the wounded or the suffering But I have the ability to nourish one man’s soul I am that flicker of hope always reappearing I am that still gentle hand of the caring Some travel worldwide in search for me But I am always there, even if I’m something you can’t see I am the smile placed on a teenager’s face But am also the product of the treble and bass Death, Fear, Anxiety the abundance of negativity Swallow your pride but never your dignity I am LOVE

I show you who you really are You don’t like what you see up close I don’t have a filter I show you who you really are You don’t like what you see up close So you decide to stand back far I’ve seen you without makeup I watch you paint it on But we’ve both seen these flaws that you just can’t hide from You try on various outfits Trying to look all nice But you should cover up more Take my advice You are so beautiful up close No need to back away far You look stunning without makeup Just as pretty with it on Yes, you have flaws But it’s something you shouldn’t hide from The outfit you chose today Oh, it looks ever so nice It would look even better with your gorgeous smile We are a mirror

I tell you all about myself Yet know nothing about you   You turn to me to escape the world I take you on adventures Full of a mix of emotions I am the portal between reality and fantasy I make you laugh and smile, stand and cry I take you on fantastic journeys I take you to wonderland I take you to the equator I can take you to a different planet I transport you to a whole new world I have the power to do anything I am a book

Before you can see nothing You can only see splashes of blurred colours You can see lights flashing as if in a fairground You can see shapes dashing past, squares, rectangles, triangles You can see the abstract paintings of Picasso   You can see a smile, or is it a frown You can see tears of happiness, or is it sadness You looked through my small metal frame You can now see it all It was a smile, not a frown It was tears of happiness, not sadness I am a pair of glasses

Last week was my birthday I am 87 But I still look pretty sharp Don’t you think that I look smart? In my slick blue blazer And my stripy tie And the smile on my face as I look to the sky   But I’m still in very good shape From Allenby to Evans From FM to C block To Sir Montague Sharpe. My grounds are so big, it’s like being in a park But I’m still young at heart. I’m where you can come to help you achieve To find interests and friends And fulfil all your dreams And know that you’ll always be part of my team. I am Drayton Manor
