Outside With The Kids A day with you is a day times two; In twice the joy Im reveling. You skip with me, hands held tightly, wind-swept hair disheveling. Well do it all--the bike with a fall, getting up and trying again. Such as it goes, highs and lows; Lows get you to where you begin. Come rain or shine; a dollar, a dime; well cover what resources allow. Its you, its me, what else do we need? What we have right here and now. Outside we scream, spill our ice cream without a care or worry. If you scrape your knee, count on me, Ill come running in a hurry. Butterflies to chase, dirt on our face, a roll down the grassy hill-- It will be sublime, though were out of time; the clock says what we never will. © Candice Elise Miller,2004 Yucaipa, California Authors Comment ~ This poem was written for the kids I care for in my childcare business. We have such a great time outside! Children have so much to teach us about life, and they all (especially my own) are a constant source of inspiration. |
