God Bless The Children


one day riding on a bus there sat a little old man
he had a sadness in his eye and some flowers in his hand
there he spied a young girl just about nine or ten
she was looked down at the flowers and up at him again
her golden hair reminded him of a long long time ago
and he handed her the flowers when it was time for him to go.
there you are sweetie take these home he sighed
I buy them for my wife everyday and I'm sure that she won't mind
he smiled as her face lit up, isn't that what flowers are for?
and he crossed the length of the bus and headed out the door.
she watched him through the window just before the bus pulled away,
she saw him walk into a cemetery and kneel down before a grave.

one day riding on a bus there sat a girl about ten
she had a sadness in her eyes and some flowers in her hand
it took a week but she managed to come up with just enough
she had walked down to the store just to get the stuff
she sat down in the seat she had sat a week ago
she layed a rose down on his seat when it was time to go
she smiled to herself isn't that what flowers are for?
and she crossed the length of the bus and headed for the door
she watched through the window as the bus pulled away,
and she walked into the cemetery and kneeled down before a grave.

"Hello you don't know me but these here are for you,
you see your husband gave them to me but that was before I knew
see I've never gotten flowers before I can imagine how I looked
But if I would have known he was coming here I would have thought
before I took."
she laid the flowers on the grave and stood up to say goodbye
when an arm came from behind her, and an old man started to cry.
he couldn't believe there was such a big heart in someone frail and
small
he hugged the little girl and whispered,"God bless you children,
oh god bless you all!"
