Comments : Through The Eyes Of A Child (innocence)

  • 6 years ago

    by Mr. Darcy

    Children are like sponges: they soak up what the world around them. Unfortunately, the world is not perfect, far from it!
    Children are born innocent and I love their fresh perspective of the world. This is the world we no longer see. Our blindness is the gift we sadly pass onto them.

      I don't think they inherit our blindness per say. I do think however that as we grow all the wonderful things are Obscured by the bad.

    I loved it when my son was little and would notice and question things that I'd long since stopped seeing awe in. A child's point of view is magical and you've captured that perfectly here Craig. Brilliant! I'm sad I've run out of nominations :-) x

      Thanks Mad Cat Lady.

      I love seeing my little nephews reaction when he sees something new and exciting.

      His eyes go wide and it's like "what is that?"

    I dont have children but from what I have observed small children always seem so exited about things and observe so much more than parents realise they do an excellent piece that captures very well the attributes of a child. Milly x

      Thank you Mills

      I'm glad you liked this. For me this poem is something of a double edged sword. Children see the world as a magical place of wonder if they are lucky. However some see and experience things that they really shouldn't have to.
