Sometimes, life throws us curve balls. And it is not our job to watch the pitch, but to swing. better to swing for the fence than to go down looking. you never know, one of these days, you could possibly hit a homerun.


I’m dreaming of an Oak tree,



It stands tall in the wind, among the green of the grass



It sways in the breeze, it’s unmoving.



I’m dreaming of an Oak tree



But its more than just a dream.



There is a little girl under its shade



While a young boy swings from its branches.



I see an Oak tree and I stand beneath and let its greatness overtake me



One day I will live under this oak tree



I will build my house under this oak tree



And one day I will be buried under this Oak tree.







And I’m dreaming that you will be there next to me each step of the way…
