Child’s Play

A poem about the importance of play in the life of a child

Ahh, the wonders of a nameless world
When all is food to be consumed
Where there exist no boys and girls
Nothing save a treasure room.

The culmination of an ascended sperm
And the stillness of the ovum glow
Arise and stand, and take your turn
Ever remembering what Eternity knows.

Mountains to scale and rivers to ford
Cities of doors await your day
Your garden of greatness will be nothing more
Than the seeds you sow in your worlds of play.

Thank you for reading. Here are two poems and two articles about childhood and education.
