    Love4you (Yesterday)

    I hope you woke up this morning with a big smile on your face I hope the sun is shining just for you and the birds are singing their very best songs... I hope your coffee is hot and tastes just right and the cats are purring contentedly, and the mailman waves a cheery hello and there are no bills in the mailbox... I hope just everything goes your way ... I hope everything is well with your world, a place for everything and everything in it's place... I hope you can enjoy all you do and you are complimented on the way you look and you can laugh and talk and share to your heart's content I hope you have all you wish for yourself and those dear to you, and all your dreams come true... At the end of the day I wish you a perfect moon shining just for you, a snug and cozy bed with the softest of pillows and I hope you sleep like a lamb with a smile on your face... I hope you have a perfect end to the perfect day and I hope that every day is just as wonderful in it's own way I hope your day is ... filled with love~Love,Maria
