Ambassadors Of Love
The continuance
of our beliefs, cultures, and dreams,
remain steadfastly anchored within our children:
it's no wonder we love them so.
We assure them that the bogeyman doesn't exist
in the real world:
warning that fear can affect lives,
harden hearts, and displace love.
We teach the emergence of man
from animal to human beings.
And though young minds bristle with questions:
we help them figure out the answers on their own.
And emphasize the importance of truth:
garnering Karma from both our failures
and our successes.
We introduce them to faith:
where compassion and forgiveness flourish,
fueled by hope and God's eternal love.
And we pray, when we pass Life’s baton to them:
our children, like ourselves,
will carry on, as ambassadors of love.
