As children our memories were sacred and our hope was truly understood We were loved without condition we loved the way we all should hearts were seldom broken and we all believed in good Love held our hearts and souls and we loved everything we could It was only in growing our joys were misunderstood and we faltered in humiliation it kept us from loving the way that in childhood we would Now, after years of longing our hearts cry out to kindred hearts for consolation our souls search out the good we once again understand appreciation we think the way we should As we witness the revelation As we share in the brotherhood We draw ourselves back to the time when we thought as children Copyright 2008 Pierre Ortega

I do wish it were as you express, Pierre. I understand but a lot of people have long forgotten the way they might have been as a child. Thank you. Love and peace to you,

Regis

Wonderful and wise. Those of us who can be creative and dream have the awe of the child within. We're the lucky ones too. I've always viewed a flower, sunset, birds and most everything like the child. I get overwhelmed easy.
This is wonderful Pierre. I'm happy you still maintain the gift of the child.
Love,
Susan
