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 GRIFFIIN<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/through-the-eyes-of-a-child/
