After reading the post in The Alley, I thought a happier poem would be a good idea, so to WhtDove, everyone else who posted a reply to her topic in The Alley, to all who have children, and to everyone else as well...Here is a happier poem, and remember...set a good example! A little child is a pleasure that money cannot buy his face reveals his trust in you his love gleams from his eyes He follows your example be careful what you do he deserves a chance in life and depends a lot on you He follows where you lead him not where you say to go make sure your steps are firmly placed and that your pace is slow Do all you can to guide him and help him to grow strong and if he follows in your steps don't lead him in the wrong Finish your beer--There are sober people in China! |

Oh such wonderful comments. Thank you dearly. I wrote this poem to my husband about our son. That, however, is a LONG story, that I might write into a poem one day, but don't think I should go into at the moment  Thank you once again for you wonderful comments, they are greatly appreciatedFinish your beer--There are sober people in China! |

Pooh~ Wonderful poem and very well said, they are the most precious things on earth and need to be loved and cared for always Love is a childs embace The loving smile upon their face Everything they touch and do The excitement of something new They light up a room with one small grin Everyone's hearts they soon win Precious little angels that sparkle and deilight Fill our hearts with joy and make our world bright There is no other love greater than this No greater love than your childs goodnight kiss Under the covers they tenderly lay To keep them safe is what we pray Dear Pooh~ I Hope you like this Tracie~ Love is the life of the soul... It is the harmony of the universe |
