My Hopes For A New Born Child
not the most rhythmical poem ever but I think it expresses something really nice.
May You be born with a fearless spirit
May You speak the truth till the end
May You fight for your rights & others
May You be the champion of the Good & The True
May You live with your Liberty
May You be blessed by Nature
May You find peace among the crowd
May You find the best within you and hold it up as a banner
May You illuminate the world with reason's bright light
May You never give in to the darkness, walk with strength and courage
May You avoid the Hate of your fellow beings
May You find your place in the world
May You be free from sorrow and always find solace
I wish for you to be able to see the Glory Of Existence.
