lyrics

These two –
Real, precise,
and –
Ours.
(Well, you wanted answers!)
What shall we do with them?
We shall fill them to the brim
with our love
and our hope.
Never let them believe
even for a moment
That they are not
The spark of the light of our every morning.

(Be they brats OR saints – for who knows what YOUR family brings.)
