Little Children

Children are precious blessings to us all
When they're scared, it's for us they call
They trust us completely without a doubt
They have no idea what betrayal is about
They look to us for structure, safety & love
Not to belittle, hit, push, hurt & shove
Mothers love your children, please I beg you
Don't leave them wondering what to do
Teach them about love, life, sorrow and grief
Never give up, instill in them pure belief
