A Baby
Why speak of Rajah rubies,
And roses of the South?
I know a sweeter crimson
A baby's mouth.
Why speak of Sultan sapphires
And violet seas and skies?
I know a lovelier azure
A baby's eyes.
Go seek the wide world over!
Search every land and mart!
You 'll never find a pearl like this
A baby's heart.
Madison Julius Cawein
