Come Heavenly child come

Little children 

Have a radiance of innocents from 

The Lord When a little child smiles Is the most precious thing 

When the apostles shooed away the children 

Jesus stopped them 

Telling them to bring them 

 Watching children 

Is watching an example 

We are children of God 

I love playing with little kids 

Children joy is contagious 

Their sadness is heartbreaking 

I strive to get this child inspired joy

Being my Lord's child 

I want to be a child that 

Jesus Stops his followers sending me away 

And telling them let the child come 

Come you heavenly child, come

A lovely write, message and poem of faith. Heartfelt and encouraging. Lovely depth of feeling. You express the love of God for His children that is uplifting and encouraging. Powerful closing line. Well penned and a most enjoyable read.

A beautiful and hopeful poem. I agree. Young children teach us hope and how to laugh. I like the desire to know peace and for Jesus to request an audience. Thank you for the excellent poetry.
