_Keep Me Safe_

May all your love be kindly requited
 may all your love be blessed and may your 
feelings not be slighted and may your heartbeat stand the test may all of those 
who ever loved you wish you a happy new year’s day and may the gods that dwell within
us keep you safe in every way may tenderness pour down like gold with every sunrise
that you see and with each sunset I’ll be with you pink-ribboned laughter, wild 
and free
