a child is the farther of mankind

Children are fathers too mankind - e.webb

A child is the farther too mankind

They no more through not seeing what makes man blind

A child has innocence
Purity, not seen with in man

The hour glass of sand
Still full in their tiny hand

We could learn a lot from our children
We too were once as blessed
oh how enlightened as them were we
The days we suckled from our mothers breast 
no thought of fear in early year for what do they dream what voice do they hear

So when we teach the ways of our world 
the rules of man as how only we can

The child teaches us theres more than were
seeing
and light us the way to be content with being
as love unconditional blinds ages stain
we now only care for freeing their pain
