CHILDREN

Children, these wonderful human beings that bring us such
joy, happiness and hope for a better future for our world.

To love and laugh and learn of life, your children come to you,
Though with you, each their own life builds, while watching all you do,
As children of the Universe, through you they find a way,
Upon this jewelled planet set, a soul spun forth in clay.

Your love they need to nurture life, their thoughts are all their own,
Each orbits an eternal soul, like stars to shine alone.
Yet not alone, but one with all, reflecting through the night,
'Til heavens gold and fiery ball obscures them from the sight

The longing of each heart seeks for our understanding too,
Transcending through to spiritual things, and values that ring true,
And while you house their bodies, give love and tender care,
Tomorrow's land their search compels, as minds become aware.

To fly, as arrows leave the bow, like comets in the night
And mark upon the infinite, a pattern in their flight.
Their plan upon the loom of life, a fabric new, yet old,
A hope to live the Golden Rule, the way of love unfold.
