As You Are

by angel38

(I always think that I must take everybody for what they are and not for what they have. For me individuality includes attributes of each person. In reality, it is what the person thinks and does and not what a person can buy is what counts.)

As You Are
(I like it that way)
I
Just as the wind blows
The flowers yield their beauty.
Just as the world turns and goes
The weather does its duty.
Just as everything has a purpose
Every being or soul has a place.
Even though it has an intention
As do the petals of a rose,
As do the colors of your lace
You are worth my admiration.
II
And when it comes to feelings
Or sentimental value of my end,
Your mystical and magical splendor
Flourish in your loving dealings
Beyond any struggle, my dear friend,
To be admired, loved and adored.
III
So, please don't change in anything.
You are beatiful just the way you are.
Let it be I who changes the song I sing,
Let me harmonize with you my star,
For now , I always and ever will be true
All that will remain for us to be
In my soul and in my mind, it's you,
As your are within me.

by Miguel A. Soto, Stanton, California, USA - August 1o, 2007
