My hearts treasures are found in your smile
and your giggles and laughs
In the wonder and excitement
and colors of your eyes
In that little universe you create
and carry inside your mind
In the endless love you grow
and care for in your heart
The ceaseless way you amaze me
day after day
And I wish you didn't have to grow up
in such a cruel and dangerous world
Or even have to grow up at all
I have ever faith in you
that you will keep your kindness
and your heart and your love young
and you will hold onto enough innocence
and childish wonder
to walk among those of tomorrow
that will help lead the world away
from its fear and hate and cruelty
And make the world safe
for the smiles and giggles and laughs
That your heart will find its treasures
