Look At Their Smile

I think children are important To you and to me And I think I can prove it So that you’ll agree. What do you see When you look into their eyes? Could it be love Coming from such a small size? They’ll learn and they’ll teach You’ll laugh and you’ll cry And you wouldn’t settle for less Or change if you’ve tried. An innocent face Despite what they’ve done Eager for play And being the mightier one. You’ll want their attention If just for awhile And if you want hope Just look at their smile.

As adults we can all learn so much from young children. Only a young mind, that is unconstrained of all accepted restrictions, can truly soar into the stratosphere of new perceptions and original thought. The world belongs to the old...But it is inherited by the young. You are right, Brenda...There is hope in a childs smile - Hope for us all! My very best regards! :) john
