Sat on a bus
And just in front of me
Two children who astounded me
Everything that they see
From the window as amazing
Wonderful and filled with curiosity
Their eyes were alive
Their expression full of joy
It made ask the obvious question
When did we lose those eyes
The eyes of the child
That sees everything vibrant
Time after time
How did we let
Ourselves get so blind?
Excited by everything
Amazed by the miracle of life
These are the eyes of a child
An excitable mind
That can’t be defined
How did we end up so blind
And when did we close our mind.
