Words of wisdom

A Poem by Ida C. Stavnes

Bring me love – to cherish and honor,
Bring me truth – so I can be sure.
Bring me joy – for laughter and smile,
Bring me sickness – I’ll bring people the cure.
 
Bring me friends – so loneliness fades,
Bring me tears – so I’ll be strong.
Bring me cards – I’ll give you the spades,
Bring me honesty – I’ll show right from wrong.
 
Bring me raindrops – the sun will shine through,
Bring me fears – I will chase them away.
Bring me sadness – to see what’s true,
Bring me darkness – they’ll see the light of the day.
 
Bring me heroes – they’ll guide the path,
Bring me grey – I’ll make it turn blue.
Bring me anger – it’s better than wrath,
Bring me faith – I’ve learned from you.
 
Bring me laughter – so the world can smile,
Bring me angels – sent from above.
Bring me colors – even just for a while, 
And if they bring me you - I'll show them true love.
