OUR BABY
How white your tiny fingers, dear, How feeble your small hands! And yet, how many many hearts They bind with iron bands. Your slightest look, your smallest smile, Your faintest whispering Are noticed, and your every wish Obeyed, you little king. Your cot is such a small one, dear, You are so very wee; And yet, were we to lose you, dear, Our home would empty be. The world is like a giant wheel Revolving the years through; But while you rest, a little babe, The whole world lives for you. (5 Marks and a Merit Card awarded to Jessie Hewson, Seadown.)
