Blessing

John Boyd 1960 (Danville Va)



I love you,
Coming from such innocence,
Nothing could be more true,
Nothing ever, never since.

From the first time,
I ever held you,
The joy is mine,
Those eyes so blue.

The greatest treasure,
In the heart of man,
Is so beyond measure,
So far beyond plans.

Would I ever change it,
Not even if I could,
Or ever rearrange it,
No reason  I should.

The love in your heart,
So innocent and true,
So adoreable and sweet,
No one like you.
