Freda's Garden:

Welcome to my Garden:
This is our great-grandson, Sawyer, learning to ski
Today is his sixth birthday.

LITTLE BOYS ARE
Little boys are:
Bloody noses
And skinned shins,
Dirty hands
And toothless grins.

Little boys are:
Baseball caps,
Tennis shoes,
Eyes of brown
And eyes of blue.

Little boys are:
Ragged jeans
And muddy feet,
Sometimes words,
You can't repeat.

Little boys are:
Angels only,
In their sleep.
In repose, their sweetness
Can't be beat.

Little boys are:
Joy and exasperation
And one of...
God's best Creation!
