HOME AND CHILDREN'S DEPARTMENT

KISSING A SUNBEAM

From the June 1890 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The sun shone in glory o'er valley and hill,
When up through the meadow and over the sill
There dances a bright little sunbeam astray,
Till it reaches a fair, blue-eyed baby at play.

" How pretty," says baby, and, laughing with joy,
She casts from her hand her most cherished toy;
And over the carpet she creeps with delight
To grasp this new toy that now dazzles her sight.

There! her plump little hand has come down with a will,
And she sits back in triumph; but now her eyes fill
With a strange, baby awe, as her fingers unclose,
And there, to her wonder, they nothing disclose.
