This poem was written for my mother, Dr. Kitty David, who is such a powerful influence in my life. She has always encouraged us, her three children, to appreciate the little things that make life special. She points out a mountain sunset, exclaims with delight at a green field, and enjoys the beauty of flowers growing wild. Her happy laughter rings out and chases away gloom. She has a special way with people which makes them confide in her their deepest worries and fears. She writes letters and cards to encourage and keep in touch with people and bring sunshine into their lives. Her positive attitude and faith in God makes her
a powerful shoulder to lean on.
