Children
By, Erika Nyman


Children come in all shapes and sizes, all colors and forms
They have a sweetness about them and an innocence within them
Their smiles can ease pain and brighten a stormy day
To look into the big clear eyes of a child and see the awe and amusement that no adult can find is a wonderful feeling
I may not know exactly what it is I'm doing but I do know that I will love and cherish my children,
I will let them grow, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually
I will guard them and keep them safe from harm
And I will love them and teach them as only a mother can do
