The Canvas
"A Labor Of Love"
A child is like a canvas
the artist paints with love
His heart and soul are flawless
and as peaceful as a dove
As the artist begins to paint
and create his labor of love
So this child is molded
our hands guided from above
The artist puts into his work
his heart his soul his sweat
And in the end a masterpiece
another goal with love has met
We must do as the artist paints
and start with this innocent life
Put all ourselves into raising him
he will grow knowing wrong from right
In the end we should be proud
what we molded with help from above
A child has grown into a man
as a result of our "labor of love"
