The Face of Innocence Click the rose to start the midi Bridge Over Trouble Waters Audio Track from "Words from My Heart" CD below the poem

The face of a child does say what others cannot say. It is the face of innocence and caring not the hatred and pain inflicted throughout the world each day. See the face of innocence covered with tears. Showing what it cannot understand for it has not learned the fears. The fear of being hungry and homeless in a world of despair, the fear of uncertain tomorrows without anyone to care. Thus, take the child in your arms. Caress it with compassion and pray. For you are holding the future of the world in your arms today. ©Sonji Rush SAY A PRAYER FOR PEACE WORLD PEACE WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER Triad Ltd's Universal Millennium Symbol Peace, Hope and Unity
