Grandpa Tucker's Poem: Magic

MAGIC

There is magic everywhere--you can see it.
It's the blue up in the sky,
And the twinkle in an eye,
Or the love baked in a pie.
And the rules of magic say--you can be it.

Put some magic in your pocket--then just share it.
Laugh with someone who is sad,
Forgive a person who's been bad,
Really listen to your dad,
Spread the rest across your face--and you'll wear it.

Put the edges of your mouth--up in the air.
It's amazing how a smile
Will last a long, long while.
And is never out of style.
Soon the magic that you seek--it will be there.
