Baptism


I'm all dressed in white and ready to go,
The water is freezing- oh no!
My dad is waiting, a smile on his face,
For me to arrive and get into place.
He holds my hands, I hold my nose,
I take a deep breath, and wiggle my toes.
The water goes over every last inch,
Why was I worried, that was a cinch.
The feelings of happiness, comfort and joy,
Are the best gifts to get- over any old toy.
This gift won't break or fade over time,
As long as you remember to walk a straight line.
