when joyous pleasure grips you
and your smile 'bout cracks your face
for all the childlike beauty
for all that love and grace
for the miracle of children
their laughter's
all it takes
how Jesus said be like them
if you'll enter
Heaven's
gates
I cannot quite imagine
life without
these little girls
God's placed His sparkle in them
as they run
and dance
and twirl
they know His loving kindness
they even know to pray
to thank Him for the goodness
He brings to them
each day
they love to tell
me stories
of Goldilocks
and Three Bears
of all their friends
of all they do
and all the while
I stand amazed...
that God has given...
so much grace
my precious little princesses
with arms so full of hugs
I'll always have
a place
for you
safe
within
my
heart
the two of you
my favourite things
