To see their wonderful smile, <br /> So full, yet free from guile, <br /> So innocent, so undefiled, <br /> To see - through the eyes of a child. <br /> <br /> To see their time of play, <br /> Never thinking of the pain of yesterday, <br /> With a heart so happy and mild, <br /> To see - through the eyes of a child. <br /> <br /> To see how quick they are to forgive, <br /> To love, to cherish, and to live. <br /> No poet can tell it - not even Oscar Wilde. <br /> To see - through the eyes of a child. <br /> <br /> To see their peace of heart, <br /> How quickly their troubles depart! <br /> In a world so crazy, so wild, <br /> To see -through the eyes of a child. <br /> <br /> In our Heavenly Father, we ought to rest, <br /> As a child doth so blest. <br /> Free from care in world so defiled, <br /> To see - through the eyes of a child!<br /><br />Gene Griffin<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/through-the-eyes-of-a-child-2/
