I Saw a Child

 

I saw a child who couldn't walk,

sit on a horse, laugh and talk.

Then ride through a field of daisies

and yet he could not walk unaided.

I saw a child, no legs below,

sit on a horse, and make it go

through woods of green

and places he had never been

to sit and stare,

except from a chair.

 

I saw a child who could only crawl,

mount a horse and sit up tall.

Put it through degrees of paces

and laugh at the wonder in our faces.

I saw a child borne into strife,

take up and hold the reins of life

and that same child was heard to say,

Thank God for showing me the way.....
