Opening a Door
Reading to the children and seeing the wonderment in their eyes.
Gives your heart much joy at their expressions of surprise.
It’s like opening a door to a stagnant room and letting the fresh air in.
Opening a love for learning, enchanting them from where they’ve been.
To see their little minds open and absorbing what you’ve read.
Is such a blessed feeling, much like your daily bread.
When the story is ending and you begin to look around.
You see their anticipation, at the new discoveries they have found.
They will keep on reading, finding exciting adventures to explore.
This is what you opened, when you opened that door.
