Gifts of Gold

Children are gifts of
gold
Sent from heaven, for
Us to behold
To treat with LOVE, but
seldom scold
And, into thine's own
Image-mold
So, they on "Doing the
Right Thing", will be sold
Never straying from this
path, while growing Old
As they travel down LIFE's
long, winding road

Children are animals sent from hell to ruin your life. God's little sadistic joke.
