Children are a special kind of thing
Because of all the joy they can bring
They make my heart dance and sing
Laughter of their's in my heart does ring
Niave and innocent they are sent
The infants must follow where I have went
To their aid and comfort I am bent
The rewards are great for my time lent
If you feel your patience about to sink
For the parents it's common to think
Their well being is more precious than mink
So please raise well, your coupling link
The world is often at times unkind
And may put them in a heavy struggle or bind
Make your caring love easy to find
That in their toil they may have peace of mind
All for a child's sake...
