A Little Quiet Light

In a world so big and bright,
Sometimes we need a little quiet light.
Like a soft, fluffy cloud in the sky,
Or a tiny mouse that tiptoes by.

When the world is loud and busy,
Find a cozy spot, don’t be dizzy!
Close your eyes, take a deep breath,
In the quiet, you can feel your best.

Just like the caterpillar who rests in a cocoon,
Quiet time helps us grow, like flowers in bloom!
So let’s find our quiet, just me and you,
And see what magic we can do!
