A chapter in the book Lessons Learned and Spiritual

Cycle of a Child and a Flower

by Debi Pick Marquette

'
A baby blesses us so much, before and after birth
They are much more precious than anything on Earth
After good nutrition, love is mostly what they need
Give them tons of nurturing; at first they're like a seed

Like the seed that grows into the beauty of a flower
A child also needs the rays of sunshine and its power
Both depend so greatly on lots of loving care
And neither can survive without water, food and air

Blessed to have our children for many years to cherish

But the lovely flower, every winter it will perish

These cycles will continue from birth until old age
Tell your child of Christ; He's needed every stage

A Child and a flower are gifts from God we know
Some flowers give us food and others just to show

Our child will be our child until the time we go

Sadly some weren't given, the chance to bloom and grow
