And the Beauty of Both

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 ,
