Like a Child

Young children look at life differently than when they become adults. Their love and sweetness shows through their eyes. Why can't we keep this childlike view all through our lives. The world would be a better place. Blue eyes open wide Starry look amazes me Love for all to see Date Written:6/4/2022

I really like this, paula. But you need two parts for haibun, a bit of free verse along with haiku! I better look it up to make sure, but that's what I am thinking.
