Poem - The Eyes

The Eyes

Look into the eyes

So alert, so bright;

Pulling in wonder,

Spilling out potential.

They will be hurt,

On occasion disappointed;

They will cry.

Each new pain will leave its mark.

Show them excitement and beauty

Encourage their imagination and independence.

Each new joy will also leave a mark.

Then look again into the eyes,

To see it all, filtered.

Still alert, still bright;

Filled with wonder,

Drawing out potential

From the next pair.
