Words

Words our children going out into the world Seeking recognition seeking to be loved Each one with its own individuality Romantic, funny, emotional, dark, sage or sad Reaching out to touch all they meet Coquettish, shy, witty or with deep hidden dark Racing hither and thither all over the place Some will settle down in a quiet hearth and home Others will be ignored and casually set aside A few betrayed and scoffed and ridiculed But at least they have the courage to go In search of a kindred soul and reach out in hope Dancing, dancing to the tune of life Alive, Oh so much alive in a world of their own creation.
