Eyes of Our Children

The eyes of our children are upon usDo not look awayFor in their eyes we see ourselves reflectedIt is we they saveLet them draw us in for they hold the keysTo the treasures we only dream aboutTake them by the handAnd let them lead usFor in their innocenceAre the wonders we desireBeware no harm comes to them They walk with angels And shine their brillianceAnd touch us with their gentlenessOh take delight in themThey are freeThey break our chains that bind us to the pastAnd show the promise of a new dayThe eyes of our children are upon usDo not look away
