**Child Eyes**  

Do you see that light above the sky?  

Do you see how it shines, how it dances,  

how it whispers secrets to the night?  

Do you see the stars in the ocean?  

Do you see how they play with the fish?

Do you see how it chases the waves like silver dreams?  

Do you hear the wind humming stories,  

painting pictures with its breath?  

Do you feel the earth beneath your feet,  

singing songs only children know?  

But of course, you don’t.  

Because you don’t have the same eyes,  

you don’t have the same smile,  

the same curiosity.  

It’s still you,  

but now that you have grown,  

you don’t see the same things  

you used to see.

 you don’t see

with child eyes anymore.
