Infants and children are
the innocence of the world.
Their fate imprinted upon
conception.
Their power,and honesty
unrestrained from the
shackles of life.
We as adults need to:
Listen to what the have to say.
Let them teach us how to allay
fears of today.
May we have the strength
and courage to protect
them from strife.
May we nurture, protect,
listen and respond appropriately
to their needs and wants.
May we follow them into adulthood
with respect and passion.
May their hearts be filled with
love and compassion.
Infants and children are
the innocence of the world.
