We Owe Them So Much More Than Woo





If we can help the children
understand what they must find
how time is there and everywhere
not out of sight nor out of mind

Breathing eating drinking
like laughing crying dancing
bathing in a cool clear pond
as if life was fun advancing

Look how we contain ourselves
say the parents to the child
free reins are not for novices
when your energy runs wild

Small wonder kids get angry
so little help on what to learn
too much toe the line hyperbole
so much adult crash and burn
