These are a few of my favorite things...
Silly children who giggle
And when tickled, wriggle.
Small hands in mine,
Big eyes that shine.
Strong arms to hug
When heart strings are tugged.
Keen ears to hear
Sweet voices I hold dear.
A quiet place to read;
Rejuvenation that I need.
A cushiony sleep
When I ne'er hear a peep.
Clear eyes to see
A world full of beauty.
All God's creations,
The freedom of our nation.
Love taken and given.
Errors long ago forgiven.
Laughing with good friends
To heal and to mend.
