When G-d calls little children
to dwell with Him above,
we mortals sometimes question
the wisdom of His love.
Perhaps G-d tires of calling
the aged to His fold,
so He picks a rosebud
before it can grow old.
G-d knows how much we need
them and so He takes but few
to make the land of Heaven
more beautiful to view,
believing this is difficult,
still somehow we must try.
The saddest word mankind knows
will always be "Goodbye",
So when those little children depart,
we who are left behind
must realize G-d loves children-
Angels are hard to find.
