WHERE DID YOU COME FROM, BABY DEAR?
Where did you come from, baby dear?
"Out of the everywhere into the here."
Where did you get those eyes so blue?
"Out of the sky as I came through."
What makes the light in them sparkle and spin?
"Some of the starry spikes left in."
What makes your cheek like a warm white rose?
"I saw something better than anyone knows."
Whence that three-cornered smile of bliss?
"Three angels gave me at once a kiss."
Where did you get those arms and hands?
"Love made itself into bonds and bands."
Feet, where did you come, you darling things?
"From the same box as the cherubs wings."
How did they all just come to be you?
"God thought about me, and so I grew."
But how did you come to us, you dear?
"God thought about you, and so I am here."
