When A Child Is Born Poem by Juan Olivarez

When A Child Is Born



Oh that when a child is born,
He would be taught to love.
That the child should never ever mourn,
That he stay pure as a celestial dove,

Oh that he be taught of peace,
And to hatred turn his face.
So that when to the Earth he gets the lease,
We will at last have brighter days.
