Three Little Words

Even children find it hard to say these words
Maybe from fear, their voice won’t be heard

    But just three little words like “I Love You”
    Tells me what I need to know about you

    The fact that those words were hard for you to say
    Shows me that something had  gotten in our way

    Let’s figure it out so that maybe  someday
   You can say it out loud and it’ll feel okay

   Children without voices
   Is like life without choices 

    Children need to be heard when
    They say those three little words

     Mom “I love You!”
