Bliss From Heaven

Oh my, little missy, what a fortress you created Topless blonde toddler on the sand feels emancipated The smile that brightens her sweet face can’t be understated The beach ball beside her lays on the soft beach inflated Take my hand, oh little one, and please do not be afraid Come out from your sandy fortress and in the water wade Why, look, the tiny hermit crabs are marching in parade And down the beach two older boys are selling lemonade Innocent one, I pray that life holds happiness for you The world sometimes seems very harsh, but I will see you through How blessed I am to share your joy, but we’ll share sorrow too And one day when you marry, I’ll cheerfully bid adieu Childhood years spin by so fast, I savor every moment Because I have no doubt the bliss you bring is heaven sent
