Every Child Poem by AHO Speaks

Every Child



Every Child

From out of the thought each is given and a few blessed receive not
A life of earthly time not asked for; but thankful for what we got.

From what we did and what we did not, we ask there be no shame
Rather time be acknowledged with life, to repeat it, all over again.

May mankind be thankful for the purpose and reason of a Mother
The one who is the protective shield against evil acts or any other.

Time of yesterday, today, and finally the elusive day of tomorow
Histories past we honor, yet the children's future; appears to be narrow.

As nature nourishes the soil for a seed to produce the stem and pod
A mind filled with energy and thought is the bloom given by God.

Precious time a gift for theirs, mine and most importantly; yours
Enough time to question for thoughts about the human cause.

A presence of light in a state of being devoid of evil and forgiving
Mankind's contributions to improve, sustain and uplift the living.

No reason to question the intent of yesterday's time of the past
The mind is not limitless so fill it with today's; for that is what will last.

Reason and purpose in front of our eyes and in our human hands
Image and likeness; beauty and wonder; is every child grand.
