The World Is Your Home

There are roses everywhere, my child Yet, you should be careful of the thorns they carry. There is sunshine everywhere, my child. If you only learn to look through the clouds. It rains on mountains and fields alike, my child. Yet, there are deserts and droughts. There is fear of God in everyone, my child. Yet, there are felons and fraudsters. There is love all around you, my child. Yet, you should feel the one that's straight from heart. Money can't buy everything, my child. Yet, you will see that money rules you, me, the king and the slave. There is happiness everywhere, my child. Yet, you should learn to figure out the happiness within you. Every human is good by nature, my child. Yet, you should master the demons dancing in them. You can run as far as you can, my child. Yet, you should watch your step in every turn you take. There are problems everyday, my child. Yet, you shouldn't rant about troubles, rather talk about solutions. Come my child, come into this world soon. I'm waiting for you with all my heart. I will not teach you anything, my child Go, explore, learn and grow! I'll watch you and caution you at times. But the world is all yours, my child. Make it your home.

There are problems everyday, my child. Yet, you shouldn't rant about troubles, rather talk about solutions. ..... Pearls of wisdom beautifully strung together....! Lovely poem.... Swetha. Children should learn from direct experiences. The parent's role is to direct them through the right track and never to dictate to them...

wow one of the best I've read in a long time, Swetha, I love the little surprise when at the bottom of the poem you ask it to come into the world, well composed with so much wisdom and truth, anyone who has bore children knows this feeling, wishes to impart this message. Thank you for sharing dear poet friend, have a great day :)

Wonderful advice for an expected child. They do need to learn through their own experiences with guidance from us. Beautiful Swetha. Blessings xxoo

I have always been amazed by the individual innate knowledge a child brings into this world! Aloha!

This should be required reading in every elementary school. Brava! "Every human is good by nature, my child. Yet, you should master the demons dancing in them." In them and in ourselves...they are tenacious hitchhikers. Wonderful read! Thank you. You get a Fav!
