The Death Of Childhood!


The fragility of innocence,
it's depth and length
and heart,
seems to cram so little,
then scram
and fall apart!

The fresh soft eyes
of wonder,
searching all the new,
are blinded by
the pictures,
all heavy sharp
and blue!

All the information,
the cutting
grown up pain,
blasts the mind,
spots the heart
and leaves a
shadowed stain!

The slush of life
so often
spills and drowns
the bright,
and soils the soul
of childhood
and flickers out
it's light!

Joy Weare.
14th September, 2006.
