Sweet Music

He sits
                          Softly Humming 
                 And seems to have no cares,
               Playing peacefully with his toys
                               For hours.

                                He sings
         Words that seem to stem from his heart.
                 Words that have no meaning,
                         Yet sweet they be;
                                  To me.

Then he is...a poet for how else could "... stem from his heart?" Delightful dear, Brenda! Enjoy the melody of his words for no better words you will find!

Brenda, I really love your Mirror Cinquain poem. It captures the innocence and peace of a happy little one - reminds me of the days when my grand-babies were small...miss those days. The youngest of five is 15 now...Sandra

I read your words and I see my boys growing up fascinated with what they are doing and thinking when they were in play and thinking how much I loved them so. I still think of them at the age that they are and gone with their own families. Truly enjoyed Brenda :) eve

I could see my sons sitting at their play table so peaceful quietly playing and singing songs. Wonderful memories.
