"Peek
A Boo - I see You."
I overheard my neighbor's child.
" Peek A Boo - I love
You."
I watched and listened for awhile.
The little girl skipped down the
walk,
Humming as she moved.
From time to time, I'd see her
stop,
And sing her childish tune.
"Peek A Boo - I see
You."
Her sweet face looked so intent.
"Peek A Boo - I love
You."
Then down the path she went.
I saw her do this several times,
Poor, lonesome child, I thought.
She only has a nursery rhyme,
To go with her on her walk.
"Peek A Boo - I see
You."
She did it then once more.
"Peek A Boo - I love
You."
Then I scurried out my door.
I could not stand it any longer,
What did this child see?
I hurried up and caught her,
Hoping she'd explain to me.
"Peek A Boo - I see
You."
Her face buried in some Daisies.
"Peek A Boo - I love
You."
Was this child crazy?
"Honey," I called out to
her,
"What are You looking
at?"
(I may have to tell her mother,
And I needed all the facts.)
She gave me a vacant stare.
And said, "There's nothing's
wrong!
I see Lord Jesus everywhere,
That's why I sing my song."
"Mama says He's in the
flowers,
And He's in the bushes and the
trees.
And He's in rainbows and in
showers,
And He's even in the breeze."
"I see Him everywhere I look,
And I like to tell Him so.
You see, He's not just in The
Book,
He's everywhere I go."
"Peek A Boo - I see
You."
I peeked into her precious face.
"Peek A Boo - I love
You."
Then I thanked God for such grace.
