Children

Why do birds fly?
Can you tell me
who made the clouds?

I want to know
The world is new
to me and I wonder

Who made the stars
and why is the sky blue?
Where do eggs come from?

I have other questions
Why do people die?
Where do they go?

Mommy, do you love me?
Will you take care of me?
Will you teach me how to live?

Yes, my child I love
you more than
All the stars in the sky

God made the world
with much love
just as He made you

He found much joy
creating you and seeing
you being born

I don’t know why
people die but I do
know they go to an awesome place called heaven

They are happy there and
see God face to face
He welcomes and hugs them with love

I love your questions
Your delight in the simple
and small miracles each day

You teach me to live!
You teach me to celebrate!
You teach me love!
