Bless the Children

With their light hearted smiles
 and funky dance styles,
they make us laugh
 and see our better half. 

So let us then,
Bless the children.

Seeing them playing together
 in the sunny weather,
they prove us so wrong
 on not getting along.

So let us then
Bless the children.

Showing us pure joy
 in one simple toy,
they help us learn
 our joy in turn.

So let us then
Bless the children.

Hi Mark, congrats on having a featured poem of the week, with a great write- yes, if only us grown-ups could be as children, what a peaceful place the world would be. And we'd all be in bed by nine. Sober. On second thoughts.... Anyway, well done. Regards, Viv
