In Our Lives
Many bees in their hives cause a honey flow
Many people in our lives cause a sweeter go
Many mice in their maze cause a steady try
Many people in our haze cause a clearer sky
Many cows in their grain cause a milky sup
Many people in our chain cause a fuller cup
Many birds in their flight cause a pretty sail
Many people in our fright cause a safer trail
Many apes in their tree cause a funny play
Many people in our spree cause a better way
Many bears in their dens cause a cozy lair
Many people in our yens cause a deeper care
Many paws in their print cause a happy heart
Many people in our stint cause a kinder part
