Innocent Passage

And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, And said, "Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea."   Matthew 18:2-6

"Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven." Matthew 18:10

Hear the song of the morning dove

my precious child,

calling out across the empty fields,

leading you back

to the land

of fairy tales and dreams,

where your soul shall know

kindness and sweetness

once more;

do not weep

my beautiful little flower,

for surely it is an

innocent passage

into this shining kingdom,

where angels softly sing,

cradling you gently

in their protective arms,

wiping away your tears,

a place where the darkness

of this world,

shall cross your face

no more.
