The Heart of Little Xavier
by Shelby M. Forrest


Xavier is a six year old
Almost, but not quite yet.
So privileges of a six year old
He'll have to wait to get.

In the meantime, he can still play sports.
And all sports Xavier loves.
He can toss a basketball through a hoop,
Catch baseballs with his gloves.

He loves his Church and Sunday School,
This sounds like a wonderful start.
For a life so filled with love so young,
He needs a gigantic heart.

In addition to parents, Grandma and Pawpaw
The whole world's on the list
Of all the people Xavier loves.
Not a single soul was missed.
