The children on their bended knees, beginning a lengthy prayer
For these children have more hope than all the adults there
Unlike their elders they question none, never over-analyze anything
They know that he, their only one,everything he will bring
Trust is not a question, for it is all put in him
every night the children come to pray, and pray again
The temple may be dark and dreary,but the children are always there
For every night the children come to pray, and pray again.

i like this. it says a lot! you have shown, and in an amazing way, how much faith we lose as we grow
which is really quite sad, when you think about it.

May we all have such faith. "Trust is not a question, for it is all put in him..." that is great. I pray that it all is. Great job, good luck in the contest.
