Like a Child

I look life like a child. A child who, from the loving hands of my Father Creator, my greatest fate director, was placed by Him in a wide playground of this earth from nurturing hands of my beloved parents to many distant places where I must enjoy His gifts of life and love to the fullest by the grace of His divine wisdom and freewill. I walk, skip, run and jump around in this playfield like a child who has many dreams in life for my family, relatives and community. I’m trying all my best to fulfill them while I hold Father God’s caring hands deep in my heart through a child’s prayer. being watched at play sun may come when rainy day show me the rainbow Meeting old and new people alike, I perpetually grow with them like a tyke. I continuously grow not in a physical aspect anymore but mental, emotional, social and spiritual well-being while we work together, playing hand-in-hand while we journey in the game of life’s endeavors. This is a game that offers countless fun, great challenges or struggles, ups and downs in the ring or race and then, losing or winning it when over. However, every game calls the value of sportsmanship at times of fall and beckons more rounds of play for greater chances of victory. For me, life is a game so I’ll play it. come and play with me life’s paper, rock and scissors play well and we’ll win July 14,2022 1.54pm For Like A Child Poetry Contest Sponsor: Regina McIntosh
