Childlike

(c)  By:  Sharon Slaton Howell



Puppy jumping all over

Delighted little boy --

Heartwarming picture,

Vividly impressive.

The warmth and affection

Of dog and child,

Radiating across the street to me.

No worry resting heavily,

No jaded view of life there,

Just sheer joy in the moment.



No wonder Jesus called for us

To  be like a little child.

(Matthew 18:3)
