LOOK INTO YOUR CHILDS EYES

LOOK INTO YOUR CHILDS EYES

Take a look into your children’s eyes and tell me what you see

Is it a world of fun and happiness and a world that’s bright and free

Where the sound of a mothers laughter echoes through the room

And a fathers love for his children as he see’s them blossom and bloom
Where their future is a vision of hope and has the support of a mum and dad

And the warm embrace of a parents arms when life makes them feel so sad

Or do they see a mothers tears and a fathers angry eyes

Do they want to run and hide as they hear their mothers cry’s

Or a fathers drunken rampage as he comes home late at night

Do they see their parents taking drugs when they wake up late at night

Will they see their mother lying still because their father went to far.

And the memories that are etched forever as a bitter mental scar.

It's makes me feel a great deal of pain, like my chest is caving in. I was hoping it would end like it started but like life it is tragic. I cry for the children who see and feel anger, I hate what the human race has become.

Dear David,

The two spectrums of a child's vision, the fortunate will be witness to their parents love for one another, and how they are their cherished progeny  The less fortunate will bear witness to the all encompassing destruction of their future, recording atrocities that no child should see, scarred for life by their uncaring parents mindlessness.  Powerful write.  Welcome to Cosmo.

Peace and Love,

Thank you Larry...A child is an empty vessel, our future what we teach them can influence life on earth if we teach and treat them right.
