To be childlike is to wonder on high,
To play, and to make new discoveries.
An age to ask about the how and why
With a benevolent spirit that sees
Worlds of goodness even though dreams may die;
Trusts peace to win each day with smiles that please;
Studies with ease the saintly prodigies
Without reason and proof to verify.
When the days are dreary and one the same
Our God holds and wills it in this instant.
A good father whom you would hardly blame,
Looks and runs to you while you are distant.
If you would but utter his Holy Name:
Childlike, in need, come forth! yes, expectant.
Gary Edward Geraci
