What Is My Fear?
Is it that I get confused
from things I don't know?
Is it that I fear choice,
to do right and wrong?
I have this idea
that flew through my head,
is that what I fear? What is my fear?
Is it to overcome my surroundings
that I fear?
Is it that I fear reality?
What if I cannot keep up with
all the things that are going on,
is that what I fear?
What is my fear?
My fear is the myth
that I don't know
what I fear most.
Clara Colley and George Leecan
Air - The Breeze
It goes through your hair
Wakes people up
Also puts them to sleep
It makes them relax
And makes you live
You have to have air to breathe
Fresh Air
Comes off the ocean
To wake up in the morning
Or from taking a nap
The aroma of food in your nostrils
We say wake up “I smell food”
It’s so nice that we have
fresh air to breathe.
Oh, how sweet it is
to have the breeze blowing
in your face on a hot day
Oh the breeze
