Pushing the Boundaries
Children are so precocious and precious
Especially toddlers, learning about the world,
Every experience is novel and a bit anxious
As new life adventures are rapidly unfurled.
We adults don’t remember the earliest years
Children are so precocious and precious,
We have forgotten the laughter and tears
Having accepted that our world is spacious.
We can relive them without being pugnacious
When little ones unintentionally make a fuss,
Children are so precocious and precious
Helping us reappreciate the world around us.
They bring back some long-buried memories
When learning new things was infectious,
Toddlers are always pushing the boundaries
Children are so precocious and precious.
