AN IDOLATOR by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: THE BABY HAS NO SKIES
Last Line: OF SUCH AS THIS.
Subject(s): BABIES; INFANTS;

The Baby has no skies
But Mother's eyes,
Nor any God above
But Mother's Love.
His angel sees the Father's face,
But @3he@1 the Mother's, full of grace;
And yet the heavenly kingdom is
Of such as this.
