A Child’s World

A Child’s World
to wake up each morning
to the warmth of being loved
of feeling peace
to remember
the gems of yesterday
as the sleepiness is released
to feel the excitement
of seeing their loved ones
to begin a new day
as their wants and their plans
come into play
creating a playground
welcoming in others
friends, family, the invisible
all are real to a child
a child’s world is limitless
they are free to explore and become
let us protect their environment
with our own love, peace and fun

Child Play

Child Play
when a bully is present
a child will retreat
maybe asking for help
from someone bigger than the bully
or gathering others around
to show a solid force
and the bully is defeated
his dominance unseated
and the child goes back to play

As a Child

As a Child
never forget
the way we were
as a child
wrapped in love and security
born into a world that adored us
full of curiosity
growing into a world
waiting to be explored
from the place of innocence
we learned
not all was as it first appeared
to our primal senses
we grew with a fascination
to see more, be more
feeling no limitations
always returning to our safe place
our home of love
let us return to
that place of innocence
no judgement
playful
excited to be and to share
the discoveries of the new
from living
as a child
