Ode to Children

Ode to children

Children are a blessing
From God above.
Children are a gift
Given with love
Children are pure
They don’t hate anyone.
Children need hugs
Each and every day
Children need to talk
In their own way.
Children are gentle
Kind and strong.
Children need praise
For a job well done.
Children should play
And have lots of fun.
Children should be happy
Keep anger Away.
Children are children
Let them play
Children love grandparent’s
They like them around
Children should laugh
You should hear that sound.
So when a child begins to smile
A mother finds it all worthwhile.
