Through a child's eye we should look close
To see how they envision the world and the cosmos
The naiveté is apparent and unmarred by man
Telling the honest truth without worrying about a plan
Watch them interact with adults and peers alike
Learning and absorbing everything in sight
Children see and hear more than we think they do
How else can they understand the language by age two?
I will take us back to a time long long ago
We were young and there were things we didn't know
Seeing a balloon floating high in the air
Amazement swept over our faces and we just stared.
Things haven't changed since way back then
Children still love balloons we will stare again
Their face lights up like a brilliant chandelier
Pure natural happiness without any fears.
Children trust us without any doubts
Trusting we know what we are talking about
We guide them through life providing space to expand
As they happily walk with us, holding on tight, hand in hand
Help them learn new things their way
They will run this country someday
We must believe that we will be safe
As long as we teach them and not dictate
