What the children see...

The children smile, the children laugh.

Their eyes of wonder see a world of opportunities to test life, befriend many.

A child doesn't see color, the child doesn't see race or religion. They are seeking the great adventure, some laughter and some craziness.

Our world would be kinder, our world would be better if we saw with the eyes of the children.

We would appreciate the morning sunrise, we would appreciate when the sun and the moon, kiss at dust.

The children, they smile, they laugh. Maybe we need to be like the child in heart?

Better to see life with hope and kindness. Seek new friendship and find many opportunities to dance and sing. Test life.

Be brave my friend, let's be kind to each other.

Yes! Let's be kinder to each other. Life would be seen in a different light if we looked through the eyes of children. Maybe we should say, let the children be children while they are still young instead of trying to indoctrinate them at such a young age. Let them have their imaginary friends. Let them make mistakes without punishing them. Teach them respect and honor while they are young by setting the example. It all begins at home. Mr. C, I like this poem very much and, it causes one to think from different perspectives. I don't know if you intended it to read that way but, if I may, line 4, I would suggest changing it to read: A child doesn't see color, the child doesn't see race or religion. (don't to doesn't) Otherwise, nicely done. Temp
