Cynthia Jones Poet Rhyme

A Child's Eyes

A Child's Eyes 


Look deep into a child's eyes 
And tell me what you see, 
I see the innocence 
And a soul with purity. 

A child's eyes will tell a story 
Of days gone past, 
Playing in the warmth of sunshine 
Running through a field so fast. 

Picking flowers to take home to mother 
Making and baking mud pies, 
Getting their hands all wet and dirty 
While trying to keep it away from their eyes. 

Look deep into a child's eyes 
And you will then see, 
The same things as I do 
Thinking about your own childhood memories.
