Nanna Shelby knew best..

And I like all the others will once fade away,
Remembering my childhood from day-to-day.
But before I leave this beautiful earth I have a few things to say,
Something to pass on, something to brighten your day.

1. When you see a smile in a crowd and you wonder why you noticed,
Look real close at who it is, some strangers turn out to be in your heart closest.
I believe in all things sweet with delight, such as baby giggles and love at first sight.
Don't let a moment pass where you aren't loving something.

2. When you are passionate about people,
They are passionate about you.
Show kindness where its due and handle it all peaceful,
The kindness you share is exactly what you receive too!

3. Being a beautiful person doesn't mean let people take advantage of you,
Protect yourself and your feelings for goodness sake!
Your heart can love and feel for another, but people will poke, prod and bother!
Put them in their place if you will, don't forget karma will give them their fill!

With all this in mind, and with time- know Nanna loves you, be a friend but remember to apprehend...
