Morning Peeps,

NO TIME LIKE THE PRESENT...That's why it's a GIFT

Get together Peeps...
Love is but a song to sing
Fear's the way we die

You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may not know why

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now

RIGHT NOW...
