Sweet Simplicity

The simple things in life Bring smiles to the weak So small and childlike The simple we should seek. To a child, the world is nothing Just a shadow among weeds. For a smile from his Father Is the only thing he needs. Love- what means this word? Unconditional and sweet A child has accomplished, Though we are at defeat. We- caught up in worthlessness Chase the wind, we are bound Seeking for significance When emptiness is found. Children- possessors of wisdom In sweet simplicity lay Teach us truth in your innocence You lead us not astray.
