Children are like mirrors
they reflect whatever they see
they do not tell a lie
the adult brand of courtesy.
Children's hearts are sincere
As we all were when we were young
But on coming of age
Ego tripped us and we fell down
I love little children
They're untarnished, pure and free
they see beyond the pale
to the core of integrity
Children are God's angels
sent to remind us of the good
the quality we were born with
that slowly slipped under the hood.
