In a child's defence

blanche's picture
how do you calculate in deeds and words a child's worth?
 
a parent's love comes from the heart
 
it grows from the start
 
from within
 
love at first sight?
 
not at all
 
each bump
 
and bruise
 
each cut
 
each fall
 
each boo-boo
 
cured
 
a parent knows all
 
that's the power of love
 
that's what we see
 
from both sides of the fence
 
love is equal when both parents defend
