''Children Bring Us Joy''

Contributed by waynster on Sunday, 3rd March 2013 @ 03:42:53 PM in AEST
Topic: abstract

Driving down the road in my car
listening to my son
Paying attention to the road
yet wondering how our conversation had begun

It’s an awesome feeling
when I spend time with Thomas, or Peter, my other boy
The moments I always cherish
to my heart it always brings joy

Always trying to imagine
what it is that brings joy to their heart
So I bring myself down to their level
and from being an adult I do part

My boys get a kick
when daddy is funny and cool
Especially when daddy does silly things
and daddy acts like a fool

Yes, these times we need to remember
when our children get a laugh from what we do
It sometimes reminds us
of when we were their age too

After you read this
stop what you’re doing and give your child a hug
Forget about anything you deem important
for a short time, from it all you can unplug

Days turn into nights
nights turn into days
We tend to forget about those special moments
our children love in so many ways

Sometimes we feel burdened
when our children stress us out
Then we start yelling
and then we see them pout

Take a deep breath
think again about what you say
Take those few moments with that child
to make that pain go away

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
