Best Childs Poems

when all is a tangle of alphabet
voiceless, unwound and looming
what bits of sky shall we replace
falling into place like forgotten speech
puzzles of the mind

the deepest fragments of blue
cannot be numbered or spoken
they have no number or symbol
but themselves alone
as I am alone approaching
as a stranger...

She smiled up at me

   The sadness simply faded

        Angelic wisdom

             Eyes full of love so gentle

       ...

Tonight as my baby girl started to pray
She said God it's 8 O'Clock, 
And God We need to talk.
She said daddy help me pray, 
And daddy bow your head,
As we knelt beside her bed. 
she said God can you hear me?
Mommy always said you'd hear...

If I 
were 
a fish,
I'd tell
all my
friends,
that worms
come on
hooks
with sharp
pointy
ends....

A child’s paradise 
Is a winter wonderland 
Gleaming with laughter and snow

A child, I remember the door decorated by a fir circle,

Circle that it was, it always was fresh and new.

New as the season, new to accent this place.

Place now the wreath, the circle of green,

Green to remind us of a coming Spring.

Spring, when the snow...

Dear Lord, we gather this day to give thanks for what we’ve got,
For the blessings that you’ve granted us whether realized or not.

For the blessings of family love and our feelings for each other,
Even though I will confess to you that I can’t stand my...

A Childs Eyes

A little boy in underwear,
he's only eight years old.
Hiding there behind the chair
he can't feel the cold.

Hiding from the monster
in the corner on the floor.
Wishing he would go away
and not come here no more.

He's not dreaming mommy's screaming
he begins to beg.
Filled with fears...

I am a grown woman
Yet sometimes I don’t feel that way
At times I still feel like that little girl
Who just wants her mum here today

The kindness and reassurance I felt as your child
Compares to none
You showed pure unconditional love 
How I  miss that now...

Why do people smoke tobacco, is it good for you,

Cowboys have tobacco that they sit and chew,

They look so very grown up, sending smoke into the air.

It does not really smell nice, but they don`t seem to care.

I wonder why they shout at me when...

They say years make you wise
Though wisdom is seen through children’s eyes
Life viewed simply with less complication
Friendships formed without evaluation

No judgement on where you come from or what you possess
Face value and whether they like you is the way children assess
No preconceived ideas based on...

lips and cheek will meet
a child's tear is wiped away
back to play, with clay...

A wafting thunder down deep with lost fragments of heart
Ponderous and measuring, abandoned deep in the dark
Nourishment degraded decaying love forever lost
Damaged limb from limb life’s lonely bitter cost

Taken by chase, a dragon’s breath allure
Once innocent and sweet but no longer pure
Absent loyalty unseats, the...

A Childs Voice


A child needs so much from a parent
If only their voices were heard more apparent

Maybe it would go something like this
Mommy & Daddy, there are things I truely miss

Put down your cell phone or laptop for just a bit
Equal time would be nice,...

Sheep now stand and graze
that the ice is long gone
it covered blue distant hills
South beyond Dublin town

It left carved rock and hill 
under smooth mottled haze
when young I moved in light 
on tilled ground through sunny days

Wading through cruel thistle
and crawling through scented hedge
of a...
