Perennial Perfection

 

 Child, you're a flower,

Flourished from a seed

Nurtured, loved, protected

Perfect, yes indeed.

 

Child, you're a flower,

Skin of velvet rose,

Scent of fields of lilacs

Dainty hands and toes.

 

Child, you're a flower,

Finer by the day,

Growing strong and handsome

In your special way.

 

Child, you're a flower,

A gift of true delight

Heaven knows I'm thankful

Every day and night.

 

~ Janice Cortis Kasowski

 

"...Let the children

come to me and

do not prevent them;

for the Kingdom of God

belongs to such as these."

Luke 18:16
