I Saw A Child

A lady from my church gave me this poem and it moved me so I want to share it

I Saw a Child

I saw a child who couldn't walk,

Then sit on a horse, laugh and talk.

He rode it through a field of daisies

and yet he could not walk unaided.

I saw a child, no legs below,

sit on a horse, and make it go

through woods of green

and places he had never been

except from a chair.

I saw a child who could only crawl

mount a horse and sit up tall

Put it through degrees of paces

and laugh at the wonder in our faces.

take up and hold the reins of life.

And that same child was heard to say,

"Thank God for showing me the way...
