WHY CAN'T WE?
My world is filled with wildlife,
trees, flowers, water, animals,
BIRDS OF ALL COLORS -
Red
Brown
White
Black
Orange
Blue
Tan
Green
Gray
Despite their size or color
they live in harmony.
Why can't we?
By Samantha Hendrix, age 9, 1997
IN THE HEART OF A CHILD
In the heart of a child
a seed is sewn;
a seed watered by love,
fed by knowledge, and
nurtured by acceptance.
In the heart of a child
the caretaker of the seed -
ever present -
stands in the shadows.
In the heart of a child
the seed grows;
the plant stands tall
and is strong.
In the heart of a child
the flowers of world peace
bloom daily
in every color of the rainbow.
In the heart of a child
a common bond
to the caretaker is felt -
oneness with all mankind.
