A Child's Promise

Charlotte Kuchinsky

I needed to talk to the Father of all Fathers today and this is the promise I made to Him.

I feel you near.

Your presence here

Brings both comfort and calm.

You touch my soul.

You make me whole;

Give me purpose and cause.

You've held my heart

Right from the start

And made me what I am.

Without your hand

I could not stand.

I would stumble and fall.

Without your voice

I'd have no choice

Or know where I belong.

He may whisper

And he may call,

But I will never heed.

This child is yours;

That is assured.

I'll follow where you lead.
