Dreams of love,

Is there a cherished place for this little girl? A place where fear and pain are never hurled. Is there anyone who considers her a pearl? Anyone who treasures her in all the world? Is there a place she can fly with her wings unfurled? Paint pictures of love like a heavenly mural. Or will her wings be forever curled, To hide her tears from a lonley world? She looks up to the stars at night. And wishes and prays with all her might. That someday, somehow, someone might, Truely love her with a love that is right. Is love something so very rare, That people have so little to share? Or could it be that no one cares, If she is or isn't there? Today she found the one with love to share. When she was told of her sins He did lovingly bear. Now she posesses the truest love found anywhere. Because she knows how much Jesus cares. The bitter tears no longer matter. He's mended her soul that was bruised and battered. Now she sings with joy and laughter, His song of love for ever-after.

Sarah's poem,

If I could shield your innocence from the ravages of time. You'd never know the pain that I have seen in mine. I'd never go away or break your little heart. I'd hold your tiny hand and we would never part. You'd only know the warmth of love and never once be cold. Because the evil in this world would never touch your soul. I would keep your tender heart through all those troubled years. But regretfully I know that I can never cry your tears. I know that I must trust in Him to keep you in His hands. And know what ever happens; it is in His perfect plan. HE is able to protect you from all of satans lies. And give you strength to overcome this world of comprimise. I know that He can do for you what I can never do. Providing your salvation and life that's ever new. I pray that you will love and trust Him as your God and Friend. And know that He is with you through the very end.
