Poems (Rumell)/Just a boy
JUST A BOY
Isn't he wonderful!He may be just boy to you;But I sense beneath his roughnessA depth divine, a something so true,That when touched by the proper feel,We soon reach deep wells of richness,Responding quickly, as magnet to steel.Isn't he wonderful!
Isn't he wonderful!He has the power of deepest grief,O'er a real wound, a real heartache,Or perhaps, at times, just a belief.He has the making of Prince or Clown,And that finer gift, we all would takeHe goes from grief to joy in a bound!Isn't he wonderful!
Isn't he wonderful!O isn't it wonderful that you and IHave that power, that comes not of the sod,To give the world, man, with an aim so high,One knows he is spirit, has only to reach outTo take all that has been promised of God,And prove the sonship, Christ told us about!Isn't he wonderful!
