To My Children
You wonder why I look to you
For voices sweet and low,
For simple dress and charming ways?
Because I love you so.
You wonder why I ask from you All generous thought and fine,
Both honest work and happy play? Because I call you mine.
So look as lovely as you can, x'
d be as lovely as you look.
For in my hands you hold my heart. You makers of this book.
