Laugh you little baby,
As you crawl on the floor.
Hoping for the maybe,
A family to adore.
Keep waiting for the kiss,
Of those who always will,
Know what is amiss,
Or why you’re laughing still.
God who sees the sparrow,
Is surely watching you,
Guides down pathway narrow,
Someone to love you true.
Laugh again sweet baby,
Your father up above,
Knows each little maybe,
The path to family’s love.

This poem was written in honor of the current Advocate & Pray child, Min Kyo. (Read about Min Kyo here.) To my surprise, shortly after posting about this precious little girl, a young woman I know contacted me to say that her family is inquiring after Min Kyo. She asked for prayer that, “if the Lord wills, he will break down any walls keeping her from her family.” Please pray for Min Kyo and this family who loves her.
You can join the prayer chain for Min Kyo by signing up to pray for a 15 minute slot each day for the next week. And, please, don’t stop praying after the prayer chain “expires.”
Please feel free to share this poem on your own blog, e-zine, etc. I just ask that you keep the copyright written below the poem and that you include a link either to this post or to Advocate & Pray: Min Kyo. It would also be wonderful if you could share a link to where you shared it in the comments section. Thank you!
