Is there a tune more happy than a daughter's windchime laugh?
A silence more crushing than her rolling tear?
Is there a breeze more cooling than a son's slumbered sigh?
A thought more awesome than the question that he asks?
And is there a truer joy when I am the clown?
Shame when I accuse and rage?
Peace when I pull up the sheet?
Pride when I strike the flint?
I made these kids and I make these kids.
And they make me.
