A child’s love / The truest of truth / Like pollen to flowers / Little bodies blossom / Where love blooms / Innocent and pure / Loving thy neighbor as thyself / Until they don’t / Where fertile ground / Let’s weeds grow too.
A child’s love
The truest of truth
Like pollen to flowers
Little bodies blossom
Where love blooms
Innocent and pure
Loving thy neighbor as thyself
Until they don’t
Where fertile ground
Let’s weeds grow too
Rooted deep
In generational lies
The progeny of hate
Love’s antagonistic mate
Bound together
As is night and day
In a shadowy dance
Children must navigate
Between truth’s light
And hate’s lies
Before the light
Of childhood fades
When love gives way
To adulthood’s fate
Unless remains
The child within
Who knows only love
Lives only truth
And knows no hate.

True words indeed. If we don
Jill de Villiers Florence maTrue words indeed. If we don’t stand for truth the world is lost. Well done Harry for a poignant poem.
As parents are job is never
B Mc OBAs parents are job is never done. Our influence continues to shadow our children whether strongly or from a distance. The question is, is it fraught with lies, ingrained opinions, or done right hate where truth has been overcome by personal opinion and media frenzy. What happened to love one another? Is it gone forever or now part of the political spectrum
So what we called childhood
Tom Roeper AmherstSo what we called childhood "innocence" is really wisdom. Often it may be.
Harry Seymour's poetry
CK Wolfson Oak BluffsHarry Seymour's poetry requires readers to think and most importantly, to feel. His ethical considerations cast warm light on harsh subjects.
