Growth.
Whoever binds
too close
a curious child
stems progress
and stifles
reason with ties.
Release freedom
and smile
as invention flies
then see growth
light up the
youngster's inside.

So very true, children must be free to explore all, especially Nature.
My youngest granddaughter who is two goes out foraging with my son and thoroughly enjoys being let roam free in the countryside.

You nailed it Fay, to coin a Fayze so ya did... the image and your two verse little beauty go perfectly well together.. and not only that.. they scream of truth .... Neville
You honour my scribblings yet again and thanking you dearly and more mon ami........... tried to get the whole subject into two short-line stanzas to show I am learning that less can mean more........ wonder who taught me that then eh ? ......................x
A fine write and true Fay.
Glad you saw the message behind the lines dear friend.
Oh to be an infant again. The only drawback is that it isn't something you ever remember in detail.
Too true Michael - yet they say that the correct upbringing will open the mind to make better choices when adult. Thanks ever so for your comment.
