The Child

The Child
 
 I Sometimes Wonder Late at Night,
 What Makes it All Worth While...
 And the Answer Finally Came to Me. 
 I Believe It's Because of the Child.
 
 The Child Believes in Fairy Tales,
 That There Is Nothing Too Hard to Achieve, 
 and Dreams Are Something Good...
 All You Have to Do Is Believe.
 
 To Dream the Impossible Dream,
 with Faith of it All Coming True,
 Only the Very Young at Heart
 Have the Courage to See it Through.
 
 Yes, I Have Finally Found the Answer.
 And I Am Just Beginning to See
 What Makes it All Worthwhile...
 Is the Little Child in Me.

Great poem Connie. We are led by the dreams. Now I know, we are led by a child in a dream. I'm currently penning one called DREAMS. I'll let you know when I'm through so that you can guide me with your usual comments. Thanks for being so deep-sighted! Friend, JM
