Just for today...
Yearning for your love
Hungry yet smiling
Inquisitive yet shy.
Through your eyes,
They stare in wonder.
Searching your soul,
For a glimmer of hope.
Suffering yet full of God's love
Sad yet grateful.
Unbeknownst to them,
They fill your heart
With beautiful spirit
Giving you a greater gift than you have them
One of God's grace and compassion
One of strength, faith, and commitment.
They love you unconditionally,
Just as God loves all His children.
Unsure of what tomorrow may bring,
They pray and are truly thankful
Just for today.
These are the children of Kenya.
