This little flower started as a seed from Alcatraz Prison. Believe it or not there were beautiful flowers outside that most dark and dismal place. It is a good reminder that there is light and beauty every where. We can all do our part to make our corner brighter. If our “neighbor” is in darkness we can share light and hope with them. Happy Sunday.
Brighten the Corner Where You Are
Do not wait until some deed of greatness you may do,
Do not wait to shed your light afar,
To the many duties ever near you now be true,
Brighten the corner where you are.
Chorus
Brighten the corner where you are!
Brighten the corner where you are!
Someone far from harbor you may guide across the bar;
Brighten the corner where you are!
