MY GOD CHILD

 

,August 11^th

 

“My Godchild”

 

 

My godchild is beautiful

Is beautiful

On the outside

And on the in

 

She has a wit

She has a sense of humor

And she has

A sense of honor too

 

She may not be holy

But she is spiritual

In her own right

 

She shares the feast day

Of St. Francis’ friend, St. Clare

And she is a good person

Who likes to share

 

In the end

I will always love her

And my godchild

She will always be

Someday I hope she realizes

How much I love her

And what she means to me
