A Heart as of the Baby

If I can have a heart of a baby, so pure and so bright,
Unadulterated love would flow, a beacon in the night.
I'd forgive and forget, like a child in the play,
No room for grudges, just love that's here to stay.

With a heart that's innocent, and a soul that's free,
I'd love without condition, wild and carelessly.
No pretenses, no facade, just genuine love that shines,
A reflection of the beauty, that's truly divine.

A heart of a child, is a heart of gold,
Unspoiled by the world, with love that never grows old.
Insults and pain, would just roll away,
Like a child, I'd cry, and then smile again the next day.

Innocence and trust, would be my guiding light,
A heart that believes in good, and shines with delight.
I'd welcome all with open arms, and a loving gaze,
Making everyone feel valued, in every single way.

No masks, no pretenses, just a heart that's true,
A reflection of the love, that shines right through.
If I can have a heart of a baby, so pure and so bright,
I'd spread love and kindness, and fill the world with light.

So let's strive to be, like a child in every way,
With hearts that are pure, and love that shines each day.
For in innocence and love, we find our greatest strength,
A heart of gold, that's what we should strive to length.

Let's cherish the innocence, and the love that's real,
And strive to be like children, with hearts that are ideal.
For in their simplicity, we find our greatest might,
A heart of gold, that shines with love and light.
