    My sweet child of God and Rhyme
    A wonder and parable told
    In seized moments of experience
    And grand imaginings
    Can I know your soul
    and free thinking..
    Who do you pray to ?
    these child prayers of heaven
    in your short lived truths
    Always running to become
    Yet you do not burden with them
    In childlike wisdom you wonder
    Is freedom not walked in barefeet
    the shiny stone a child secret
    that he might joy for the first time
    and bless the Angel with song.
    These deeper things of heaven for the child.
    And when you giggle and stir in adult places
    And fear that furrowed brow
    a reflection of adult spankings and forbodings
    from the Gods of adulthood
    Would you bow your head and the Angel of innocense
    keep you hidden from these glimpses of so called adult justice
    Or she bow her head in wait of you
    In this adult world where laughter appears
    forbidden a curse of the aged hardened heart.
    In this the Angel beckons you
    Continue to walk across sharp rocks
    picking up snakes and scorpions
    and sleep a peaceful sleep upon your bed of faith
    while you dream your forever dreams of change
    Inside a fortress built from a plain cardboard box
    This is your hour and song in celebration.....
    But would you grow to rebel
    And the Angels step back along the sidelines
    cheering you in a song of encouragement
    when your truths are not heard in purity and shared heart?
    But misunderstood by a pretentiousnous a child has yet to identify
    These adult fears of heaven passing them by
    For this reason you are called to throw open heaven's gates
    Inviting all without predjudice and malice
    as only seen and known to the child of God and Rhyme..
