for the little ones

look out for the little ones
fragile china dolls porcelain
petite angels on tippy toes
fire flies in jars
the world in all their wonder
as Jupiter finds His mirth
in the land so green as known as earth
has led them to their stars
milk and honey days are sunny
filled with giggles and everything funny
coloring eggs the Easter bunny
new spring dresses socks with lace
white patten leather maryjanes
buzzing bees and lady bugs
crickets and beetles means good luck
feeding the ducks
catching butterflies
flying kites
being present
from the very
first while
of life as you knew it
through the eyes
of a child.
