A Child, Like a Flower

A child, like a flower
and innocent seedling
blossoms as it grows
with proper care and feeding

A child, like a flower
needs very strong roots
love and affection 
are the perfect food

A child, like a flower
needs to be watered
with positive reinforcement
from mother and father

A child, like a flower
a gift from above
soft, sweet and innocent
a bouquet of love
