Think if we could shrink to the toddler's size and see our world from their perspective point of view...


Poem Artwork


NEW BORN

Floating and warm it was, and
very cozy inside Mummy's womb,
but now I am outside, don't liking
the no floating and feeling cold,

the sudden lights hurting my eyes
can't focus well, I am just born
to have enormous blurry faces of
crazy people saying googlelygoo!?

ONE YEAR OLD

I just turned one, experimenting,
first steps walk, nobody saw me,
exploring I went the new horizon
that are just above your bony knees.

I don't know why I get so tired
just to crawl from there to here,
maybe the distance is too great and
a stroller perhaps is all I need.

Born among gargantuan giants...
I duck, give way and watch the feet,
is all I can do to survive another day
when you are like me, a little kid.

Nursing was great, cozy and warm,
for it you don't need no accuracy,
but be careful or Mummy will say
"Ouch! suck baby, suck, but no teeth!"

ABOUT THE WORLD AROUND

Cupboards like enormous cathedrals,
hight chairs, out of reach for me,
from where I am, as a little child,
your "normal" world is too big for me.

A great offering, just as babies we too had to learn from babes to adults, it was a roller coaster of a ride, and the important thing is to keep an open mind! Even if we are adults, there is still much to learn! Great write, enjoyed!

Wonderful insight into the thoughts of a child. We grown-ups don't give enough attention to how they perceive things. it would be better for them if we did. Thanks for this gem Georg!

Georg, this is absolutely adorable, it so reminded me of when my children where young...made me realize what they might have been thinking. You've brought this into a good perspective...I truly enjoyed it!

Hi Georg,
I loved this poem mainly because I have grandchildren: 2 by my daughter, and 5 from my son. 5 of the 7 are all under age 5 so I can totally relate to to your very intuitive poem. It takes a lot of intuition to see everything through the eyes of a child. Your poem hits the nail on the head, and I enjoyed it!!!

A touching perspective Georg.

Often, through the eyes of a child, we can see perspectives and emotions that can help us understand and grow. Sometimes we can even escape the tunnel vision that we, as adults, develop about way too much around us.

Light and Wisdom ...

I can remember, Georg, when I was little: how HUGE everything seemed, how much time seemed to go on forever (especially waiting for Christmas or birthdays: they would never G E T here). Now that I am older, I wish I could go back ... an excellent thought provoker you've penned.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Sensitive and filled with empathy. . .e x c e l l e n t. Encore,
please!! 'Pea' <3 PS: Speaking as a former therapist, it is very important to kneel or bend down when talking to a child. Not just a matter of being heard, but of keeping the child from feeling
threatened or put at a distance. Love what you have said and the way you have said it! P:)
