Simply A Babe



Happy Valentine's  Day

              JUST SIMPLY A BABE
               By El aine J. Hawkins

                 No Pierced Feet,
                 No Crown of Thorns,
                 Just  Simply perfection,
                  In a Newly New Born.

                  No public Outcast,
                  No scandalous Lies,
                  Just Simply LOVE,
                  In a Newborn's Eyes.

             In time He would outgrow a
                  A baby's soft gurgle ,
              In time, on His back, He
              would carry the strain
              And the weight of ALL of our
                INIQUITIES , and struggles
               So that with Him.... WE
                Would FOREVER REIGN.
             
              Though for now, under bright
              starlit skies,  LOVE........
               Laid in a manger on a
               bed of Hay
               He was simply God's.
                      PERFECTION,
                For He came..........
                Simply as a babe.
