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.

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.
