About the Poem

For the parent who sometimes forgets to see the joy, or the teacher who feels the challenge, of having the gift of knowing a child.

The Child

by T.l. Post

I have found a place
Inside this day,
Where inner children
Run and Play.
Where worldly concern
Of Rush, Rush
Is replaced by
A child's blush.
Be as young
As you must.
In innocent truth
You can trust.
Be not worried,
Harried or woed.
The child,
In your heart,
Is all
You need know.
