Children of light

They came from the drops of His tears
as He walked thru the gardens whence life begun
and from the trails of His despair came forth
the children of light,the children of love
ethereal souls ineffably beautiful
delicate like the first snowflakes of winter
begotten from broken moulds,fashioned from forgotten love
yet despite it all,despite it all
they brim with love untainted
and hidden within themselves
lies unfaltering springs of innocence
the children of light,the children of love
Carry them in your arms gently
shield them away from the bitter chill
for they may fade under a feathers weight or a stray word
Hold them high towards a glorious sun
Let His light touch their beautiful faces
For they dwell behind heavy clouds of pain
Know that they are made in His likeness
more so than those who are made free to sin
Know that their hearts speak of His virtues
so that you may listen to yours too
Pray speak kind words for them to hear
For they may not know of seasons passing
or when the dark of night gives way to the bright of day
Hold their hands firm and guide their feet steady
For the world spins beneath a little bit too fast
and the air is a little bit too hard to take in
And always remember the courage in their hearts,
lest we forget the joyous shine in their eyes
for memories of even such endearment fade in self defeat
like smoke from a kindle,lighted in a storm
Give them all you can muster in a single breath
yet all they desire is to love,to be loved
the children of light,the children of love
