Best Childhoodfear Poems
Riding in the kiddies section all day long at an amusement park
Underestimating the number of people crowding every turn
Noticed a train pass by ……… hmmmmmmm???????….
Always wondered what a thrill it would be……..
Walking toward the loading Depot with anticipation
A fear grips my t-shirt and begins to pull me back
“You sure you want to board this large train”? Fear whispers
The conductor begins his call …”All Aboard!”…….”ALL ABOARD!!!”
Recorded history begins to play and then .. click, clack .. chookie …choo …choo
And the loudest whistle I’ve ever heard , TOOOOT….TOOOOOOOT
I grip Mama’s neck and begin to scream loud sounds of my own
Never again will I board an 8 MPH runaway train ==============
Parents get caught up in the politics of crossing the lines,
feeling too apprehensive to discipline their children,
for fear that it will be misinterpreted as brute force,
Although sensibility tells them that if they don't
intervene, their childrens' behavior can grow much worse,
However, too much coddling makes them spoiled,
so parents become paranoid,contemplating, how much is too much of love,
discipline and advice?
A million years would not make them any wiser,
and the young ones will not grow any nicer or any more
rambunctious than they anticipated,
but, the childrens' guardians remain frozen in fear because they sometimes find it
difficult to make their boundaries clear........
#85
He waits all week for game day
and can't sleep the night before.
He puts on his equipment and heads out the door.
At the field he gets in position and is prepared to play.
He wants to sack the quarterback
that's his goal today.
As the other team hikes the ball there goes eight five.
He plays without fear as he picks up his stride.
He makes his way through the line determined to meet his goal, He sacks the quarterback
and hears the whistle blow. As he walks off the field, helmet in his hand he knows he showed
no fear and was willing to take a stand.
He dreams of some day playing in the Super Bowl where he will sack the Quarterback and
hear the whistle blow. He knows he has the determination and the skills to reach his goal. He
knows his dreams will come true, as only a seven year old would know
