Nursery rhymes from childhood days
Can carry words to shock or amaze.
All life becomes the same to us
From bears that cook to a talking bus.
Great joy this brings throughout our youth
To think all beings are equal on earth.
And then comes the day when youth shall fade
Our eyes no longer behold the parade.
Of life we once took for granted
With growth and maturity we lose our enchantment.
So come with me now to the play land of life
And watch once again as the unicorns ride.
The fairies take wing and the dragons fly
Look with me now again through child's eyes.
See all of the beauty and none of the pain
Celebrate the glory of enchantment again.
Don't be afraid it really is grand
To stand on the shore with feet in the sand.
And speak again with the dolphins and whales
Of life that's becoming no longer pale.
The colors of rainbows much brighter shall be
When you see through the eyes of children like me.

Life is a wonder through the eyes of a child. I see it that way through
my grandchildren. A wonderful read.

I can only say I love your work. I am glad you post here.

OSea...That was really beautiful! Thank you for sharing that.


Through the eyes of a child, innocent once more
life comes alive and brightens ones door!

Beautiful poem and if only we could see though the eyes of a child again
it would be so sweet
