About Those Wings
and yes it is true, there is nothing to do
those bumps on their backs are not from backpacks
the children are growing wings, amazing things
no need to X-ray, they’ll continue to grow each day
and yes, a new wardrobe, newly designed clothes
they’ll want them to be flowing because of what they’re growing
the wings will also require they learn to be a flyer
and who will teach them? who knows how?
expand now the doorways, raise up the ceilings
honour their innocence, winged cupid sweet presence
for they are here to deliver, with arrows, bow and quiver
an anointment of love, goodwill and peace to all
