Newborn Baby

Small feet ~ small toes Chubby and soft Happiness Congratulations The world is new It is their future Setting track Future hopes Small feet ~ small toes The sky is still blue Give our kids a chance Childhood is one of the most important time in life A ball with rainbow colors Not bombs and guns Small feet ~ small toes Long way to go A sky full of stars A hand to hold Fresh strawberries in a cup Breaking silence of death We can not promise, but we can do something about it Small feet ~ small toes Sensitive moment in silence Enjoy every moment Focusing on the good stuff in life Do not give them tears for fears Small children in war zones Time does not heal trauma 16.02.2016 A-L Andresen :)

Oh Ann Lise how beautiful, you have written this with absolute perfection, we think of our own when they were born but we never think about those poor unfortunate babies and children, lets ponder for a moment and think of them, take care......Vera

Meaningful poem. It seems the children are always the one that suffer from the adults' mistakes.

The compassion of the author has been transposed onto the page and makes for a good read. An outpouring of emotions that surges up from the heart and splashes against the page in quiet defiance. Emile.

This was really adorable, Anne. Children are the future, and at that tender age, there are many different paths they can take. Be careful of which way you lead them, and enjoy the time you have while they are still young, for it is fleeting.

Children can be such a lovely source of inspiration, Anne Lise! They are beautiful and cute when young, seemingly fragile and in need of care and love. It is up to us to shelter them and prepare them for the life ahead. #7 ~ hugs // paul

there is nothing more precious than a child, nothing more innocent, nothing filled more with love....this poem made me smile for it showed the gentleness of your soul my poetic friend." no child has ever asked to be in this world " therefore it's our duty to love and protect them.
