CHILD, FAITH OF A

The prediction that “a little child shall lead them” applies in this poem to a skeptic rather than to ravenous beasts.

A little child walked by my side,

I had lost faith in God and man,

He prattled of his joys and hopes

As only little children can.

I did not try to blast his hopes,

I did not tell him of my pain,
