A child is a person,
As much as we dont want them to be,
At times we let out anger and hate,
Be driven upon them at such a great force.

Children tend to shrivel up,
At any type of abuse.
Psyhcological, physical, sexual,
It's all still the same in the end.

But when they can express themselves,
Let their soul delve into unkown things,
They become happy, beautiful children,
And aknowledge the world for it's graciousness.

But they are only children,
With minds still growing and taking in new things.
Being a child means unlimited fun,
And growing up is not an option.

Children have innerbeings,
That are just as unique as ours.
Each child is as special,
As the dawning of a new day.

Some very profound things you write about here. I think you made some excellent points about a child's development. Tough thing to write about and you did a good job here.
Well done.

Everything in this poem is so true!
Especially the part of the child not wanting to grow up. Who wants to grow up, can't we all just stay kids?

Great poem.

Thanks everyone. The stem of this poem actually came from spending an entire day around screaming babies and whinging toddlers (Toys 'r' Us). A childs development is something very hard to write about as I did have some probs here but I managed to get it out in the end which was ok

I have to agree Bert...who wants to grow up??
