IN THE WELL OF CHILDHOOD

IN THE WELL OF CHILDHOOD

A Poem by R J Askew
"

There's a child within every one of us. And I reckon it does us well to remember how we once were from time to time.

"
We hear ourselves when we were child,
With crystal clarity we hear,
Belle tinkles of our childhood wealth,
Our voice, our laugh, our all-we-are,
As delve we deep into this well,
To find ourselves refresh'ed new.

Sweet child within: know you I well!
For I am your remembrancer,
Big eyes for you! Muchchuckle child.
That smile of yours! It makes me up,
Giddy-up-giddy-up-giddy-kiss.
Carefree you are! the best of me.
I love you so, me gorgeous thing,
My child within, my purest wealth,
Me well of wisdom, love and health.
