Child's Perception

Through their eyes I can see smiles from others I see colors on the TV I see dogs at eye level While they are licking me Hahahaha (Laughter) I see monsters in my closet I see bats while in flight I see shadows that are scary When I go down for the night Oooohhh (Fear) I see a mommy or my daddy I see the love that they share I see that they do what’s right Because for me, they do care Aaahhhhh (sigh of happiness) I love you too, mom and dad And always will

A point of view we often forget to acknowledge, from a child's eyes. Very sweet poem, Michael. ~ Carrie
