Upbringing

There's nothing like a child's embrace
to remind you how lucky you are
their face pressed against your face
no hint of deception to mar

the most beautiful feeling you'll know
a complete and unquestioning trust
that like them, will hopefully grow
as unselfish love surely must.

Bob,

This is a beautiful poem and with such true words. The embrace of real, unconditional innocence:)

Best Wishes,
Eileen

This is so true. A child's innocence is magical and should stay that way for as long as possible.
A lovely capture.
