JUST A SIMPLE POEM
Mud puddles are sadness and
tears
To somehow forget the pain
of yesteryear
As children play there
conveniently omit yesterday
Innocence and passion
children play all day
In a child should fall or
make you cry
Just jump in a puddle and
throw mud in his eye
How simple a concept for
such a plight
But just think how hard that
makes you fight
Though as we age and
innocence has gone
We find ourselves singing
what kind song
Whether on the playground or
the business floor
How is it determined who
gets the more
This is a disability of sort
As we’re always coming up
short
So if you are not at the
head of the class
Look and who isn’t
coming up last
When things were settled by
a roll in the hay
You can sit back and hear
the laughter roar
With success you’ve
completed the chore
Though yours might not have
been
A healthy or a wealthy scene
Journey back to those
childhood years
When the threat of mud
calmed your fears
So when you feel that kiddie
urge
Jump in puddle and splurge
Go as wild as you will
But don’t forget in the
moment to be still
If mud puddle make your hear
come alive
Go ahead and bring out that
child inside
Make those mud puddles just
as wild
Whatever’s happened in the
follies of youth
It’s become far too easy to
see through the truth
Don’t you then wish for a
simpler day
Sometimes life is not that easy for her, even though it looks fun to play up on the kitchen counter....she is really trying to tell me something....WHAT SHE WANTS FOR BREAKFAST.
The simplest of tasks, for Emily and many children like her find it frustrating, to find the words for every day tasks.
An audible voice, something the majority of us take for granted is for the minority, a daily struggle. So now as she slowly approaches her 3rd birthday, I want to make the simplest of tasks not that frustrating for her in whatever way I can?
Her vision isn't clear enough to let her use descriptive pictures, so this is why I am letting her express her self in what ever why I deem appropriate for the given situation.
Those are my girls. both are daredevils.....try anything, for Emily anyway this statement is turning to be true....SHOW ME I CAN'T
SISTERS
