Little Stars of Joy

When I look into their eyes so bright,
I see twinkling of stars in their own light.
Little fairies dance and play,
Filling hearts with joy each day.

Their giggles float upon the air,
Such happiness is everywhere!
Oh, these children, pure and kind,
Bring peace and sunshine to my mind.

They sing and laugh in every season,
Finding magic without reason.
With butterflies and flowers near,
Their world is full of love and cheer.

Their smiles can chase the clouds away,
And brighten up the darkest day.
Paradises of love they share –
Blissful children, beyond compare!


 

Ballad of Innocence

Morning breezes sing with glee,
Birds dance high on every tree.
Children greet the golden day,

Laughing as they run and play,
Kindness blooms in their every heart,
Sharing joy is nature’s art.

Helping hands and voices bright,
Turning darkness into light
Childhood is a blooming flower,

Growing stronger every hour,
May their fragrance always stay,
Lighting every passing day.


 

Children, Our Sunshine

Little feet goes skip and run,
Laughing brightly in the sun.
Tiny hands with hearts so much kind,

Leave and keep warm memories behind.
Eyes that sparkle, dreams that soar,
Open every happy door.

Gentle words and smiling faces,
Fill the world with sweet embraces.
Every child, both brave and true,

Paints the sky with colours all new,
Like the stars that softly shine,
Their own little lights are all divine.
