Through the eyes of children
The world seems bright and gay
The misgivings of our society
Seem to drift away
Through childrens eyes a man's not judged
By the color of his skin
But the way he acts and conducts himself
That makes him feel kin
A child sees the simple things
That we pass by each day
And views them with an awe
In a very special way
If we could only view the world
The way that children can
We could reach and touch the souls
of our fellow man

A very beautiful piece of poetry, Sherri- There is nothing like seeing things through a child's eyes. xo Diana
Sheri, you are my hero, kids are priceless and so honest. Who needs anything else, just ask a child. They will tell you the truth and may hurt your feelings!! but it's the best!! Have a great weekend. hugs, great post.
Children are such innocent beings. I smile when I see them walking with their parents. They're usually running or skipping. I stop to wonder what the world would be like if we all skipped and smiles. :)
So true....love your poem....happy weekend....xxx...
Children are such a blessing...nice poem.
Most adults could learn a few lessons looking through the eyes of children. There is no hate, racial divide, jealously, cruelty etc. These are all traits of the personality which are learned. They do not represent traits of the soul.
Great poem!
My darling friend Sheri,
You are just a sweet and loyal friend. How I thank you for your angelic presence and friendship.
You are out today shopping for wedding gowns? DO TELL WHAT YOU FOUND!!!! You may email me anytime you wish my friend to chat. You are just a gem.
What a beautiful child here!!!! LOVE! Anita
How true...children have hearts like none other.
They bless us and teach us simple truths.

I love the Poem...such a fun blog!!
Hi Sheri, Thanks for sharing this beautiful piece of poetry. So true, children don't see things through the eyes of judgment and conditioning the way people sometimes do as they get older. Did I see in one of your comments that one of your girls will be shopping for wedding dresses? That is exciting!
Have a great Sunday.
