You will be a lovely rose
I see within the bud still closed
Potential for all that life may bring…..
My dear, you are a lovely thing
You will be a sweet wild-flower
Grace some lowly shaded bower
With the sunshine of your smile
You will brighten someone’s mile
You are still a tender sprout
But I can see without a doubt
The beauty waiting to unfold
Blue-eyed with a ring of gold
You are such a lovely child
Pure, innocent and undefiled
You will be a lovely rose
In the bud, your beauty shows
God help the cold brute who would dare
To trample you without a care
God help those who would revile
The perfect beauty of a child
