A Child's Love

The love of a child so tender and true

It breaks a heart to see one feeling blue

The joy they bring to a persons world

Whether it be a precious boy or an adorable girl

Their laughter and smiles luminate through a room

What a gift God gave to us to create one in the womb

The gift of their life is such a gorgeous creation

What an impact they can bring upon every nation

Be tender, gentle, sweet and patient with them

Show them unconditional love and forever be friends

Be there for them when they need a shoulder to cry on

Lend them you ear when they need someone to confide upon

Maintain this relationship for it is one of a kind and unique

For when they are lonely or sad it will be you that they seek

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
