“A Baby Boy”

 
A baby boy was created
by the hand of God above
to give the world the sweetest touch
of tenderness and love.

With the softness of a whisper,
God made a baby's skin
and then designed two trusting eyes
to put the starlight in.

With giggles from a waterfall
and breezes passing by,
God made a baby's laughter
and a tiny, sleepy sigh.

God made the world a precious gift
more dear and pure than gold,
with little toes to play with
and tiny hands to hold

then brought into the sunshine
a precious baby boy
All wrapped up in a rainbow
of wonder, hope, and joy.
