The Mission Trip To Please

On mission trip overseas
At least one week will do
Hold babies gently squeeze

Whether in cold where freeze
In rain forest where view 
On mission trip overseas

My hearts desire will please
Feed hungry babies stew
Hold babies gently squeeze

Give up my life of ease
Place on feet needed shoes
On mission trip overseas

Help babies who cough wheeze
For mothers good tea brew
Hold babies gently squeeze

Perfect week just do these
Open heart my love grew
On mission trip overseas
Hold babies gently squeeze

Smile ~ "This Is Very Beautiful Sara &, I Think 'You Are Lovely Dear!!!'" ~ "Yes," I myself am guilty of viewing w/o coms but, I am working upon this I believe just, sorting through a few moments of turning unto a common understandings hopes & pages; definitely finding it a bit wearisome although like, speaking unto the bent upon...."Stay Beautiful; 'My Love to 'You Always,'" John! ~ Smile, "Bye Again, 'Dear Precious Sara!'":) ~
