This Gift

This gift I give to you alone
A wish from now until you're grown.

I give to you a mirror
to see what we all see.
I give to you luxurious
moments of tranquility.

I give to you the music
that floats free upon the night sky.
I give to you a cup of knowledge
to quench your thirst that never runs dry.

I give to you the ability
to simply sit serene.
I give to you the strength
to try not to change everything.

I give to you the serenity
that eventually it'll turn out right.
I give to you a tomorrow
to look forward to after each tonight.
