Child in the Mirror
Married for years
Paying the bills
On the inside I feel like a child
Six-foot two
Beard not new
In the mirror I look like a child
Working all day
Working to play
On the inside I feel like a child
Reading the news
Seeing what’s new
In the mirror I look like a child
Conversing with friends
Problems on end
On the inside I feel like a child
Wake up each day
Do the same thing
Look at the world like a child

Love the poem!! If we would keep looking at the world, ourselves, and others, through the eyes of a child with love in our hearts how different things would be.
