Analysis of It Can Make The Day 6



When you read a book
That captures your attention
It can make the day

When you write a piece
Expressing what's intended
It can make the day

When you find the way
To peaceably co mingle
It can make the day

When you do forgive
Some offensive behaviors
It can make the day

When you sense presence
Of a spiritual being
It can make the day
