Puppy dogs and kitty cats
And hair done up with bows
Barbie dolls and play dough
That's all she cares to know

Life is full of wonder
And everyone's her friend
Her innosence and love for all
Have helped my heart to mend

She doesn't see in colors
She hides behind no guise
How happy all the world would be
If we all saw through her eyes

Hello Joe

This was so beautiful and so very true.

"A child walks with its father.
It sees an oily rainbow
on the road, a leaf, veined
and dappled on the path,
a puddle full of clouds,
a smiling dog, a cat that
needs to be stroked,
a builder's van, all a-rattle,
a gentle robin.
What did you see?"

Take care........Sue

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Oh my, Joe, this is so sweet and loving.
Yes, if only we all could see through a child's eyes.

(smiles) Awwwwwwwww, this is soooooooo gorgeous, sweet friend, I never want to take for granted the spirit of the boy in my heart as I believe innocence is the most purest wisdom of all and always want to breathe with the innocent boy spirit in me, yay! (big angel hugs) God Bless Larrah and all the children of the world, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Joe, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
