Very well done poem that call us who have young children in the family to invest our time, energy, and attention to their development. We are cautioned not to let the government do our jobs for us. Best wishes, Hector

Deepwater, we can each learn a lot from just the simple act of sitting in the background and observe our children at play. It is said, children imitate what they observe from those around them. Goes along with history repeats itself, don't you agree? Very well done.

Yes, the children are our future, and we can't and shouldn't ignore them. I like the message in your poem and I thought it was very well written. Nice picture. B :)

Comment from Sharkey
Well written, the flow is smooth and I did not catch any typos. So true too....we don't seem to be able to just let children be children anymore.

How very true. The older I get the more I understand the concept of this poem. I read it aloud and it reads really well. It's a heartfelt piece that touches the reader in its honesty. good work

Comment from Sacred Heart
Hi Duane,
I love the powerful message
within this poem. Children do
need to be involved and see through
our eyes so they
can learn and grow. Learning what
history can teach is so important to the next
generation. So they can hopefully do a little better
improving on the last one. This is so important.
We old timers surely do need to have
our dreams live on through our children.
You honor them well with this beautifully
written poem. It truly is an honor to read. Smile, Take care my friend, Love Light Patty

Comment from xxRowanHarperxx
Very cute and emotionally deep poem! I loved it! The rhythm was good and the poem flowed smoothly. Loved this part the most: "Leave them to study history,
We continue to make the same mistakes,
Learn from evolution.
Let the children play.... And watch.
Leave us our hopes and dreams,
With age."
Great poem!

I enjoyed the message in your poem and
the call to be involved with our children
and the teaching them of history.
I did note a few SPAGS that, if fixed, would help
the readability of the poem.
Leave them to study history,[.]
We continue to make the same mistakes,[.]

Dear deepwater,
The poem flows like a river. It speaks of sublime truths with simple vocabulary. Let the children play.... And watch.It's true that many natural qualities are lost in children in the process of socialization and adaptation.
Great work!
