A child's eyes

A poem about the wonders of the world when you're a child

When you look through a child's eyes 

Every hill is a mountain

Every puddle is an ocean

Every cardboard box is a ship

And the floor is lava

When you look through a child's eyes

Blankets can become a fort

Fairy tales could be real

Your neighbor is a witch

And people have homes in the clouds

When you look through a child's eyes

The world is full of magic and wonder

Clouds are made of sugar

And the moon is Swiss cheese

The mountains are waffle cones

And the snow is vanilla ice cream

The simplicity of the poem matches the subject. The child's view is limited and yet extreme, bravo. jude

Ashley, I love this. The sentiment is so soft and beautiful. Children are open, honest little ones with unlimited imaginations. Beautiful write.

Thank you for the amazing poetry. I like to have the vision of a child. Everything is more beautiful and the world is a better place. The description gave life and purpose to the poem.
