Too Loud

by William R. Potter — Read all 18 poems by William R. Potter

I wrote this from my five year old son's point of view.

Too loud

Dad and Mom are yelling.
Why are they so mad?
I brushed my teeth.
I ate my peas.
It's too loud.

Daddy's face is all red.
Mommy is crying.
Daddy said a bad word.
Mommy said, "get out!"
Where would Daddy go?
It's too loud.

I'm thirsty and tired.
My tummy is sore.
Teddy and blue bear
are very afraid.
It's too loud.

I drive my trucks
 I tell them not to worry.
Turtle and frog hide with me

under the covers.
It's too loud.

Daddy told Mommy sorry.
Mommy said sorry too.
I saw them hug.
I'm glad it's quiet now
My ears hurt
When it's too loud.

One of my favorite commercials of all time is an old LDS commercial about parents fighting, but the actors are children...it always puts it into perspective for me of how childish arguing really is...and reminds me to look at it from a child's perspective of hearing it too.
Thanks for sharing...

Well this awakened emotions deep within. I don't think this is "cute" poem. To me, this is deeply meaningful. Thank you, William. Love and peace,

Regis
