I SAW A PICTURE

i saw a picture
a few days back
it was me
at two and a half

a face so true
a face with heart
a face so new
on heaven's chart
 
i said, that boy
with so much glee
that very boy's
inside of me
 
if he could smile
as he did
it's up to me
to let him live
 
to keep a lid
on showmanship
and let that kid
relax a bit
