"SIGNS"
by Becky Hemsley

There's a robin on my fence today,

A feather by my feet

A heart-shaped leaf that blows along

Beside me down the street

Your song played on the radio

This morning in the car

And just last night I could've sworn

I saw a shooting star

The sun and rain are dancing

Making rainbows in the sky

And on the slightest breeze I watch

A butterfly go by

And people might say these are not

The signs I know they are

That it is just coincidence

Your song played in the car

That it is just the sky

And it is just the birds and breeze

A little windy weather

And the nature of the trees

But there is nothing little

About the way they make me feel

The sense of peace they carry

Is both comforting and real

Because it's just one song

And just one butterfly and bird

Just one star and just one leaf

In one enormous world

And so the probability

Of noticing it all

Is close to nearly nothing;

Almost infinitely small

And that is how I know

That when that leaf floats into view

It isn't a coincidence,

But a sign of love from you

So keep on shooting stars to me,

Keep playing me your song

Whilst you dance atop the rainbows

And blow heart-shaped leaves along

Yes, keep on sending signs my love

I'll always look around

For your butterflies on breezes

And your feathers on the ground"
