Mila


Sitting high up in the tree

Ocassionally you acknowledge me

You're searching out your quiet places

The next step - after tying laces



In a world of fairies and dinosaurs

Naughty dolls and much applause

Adventuring into the night

Devouring books and taking flight.


Although you have been quick to share

The thoughts going on up there

Now, a hint of scepticism

As you relay information...



Could mother really understand

Whats going on in my strange land?

Why is life sometimes unfair?

Does God always answer prayer?



So take time high up in the leaves

Embrace the world of make believe

But when you venture back to earth

Let me remind you of your worth.

This is cool. Didn't know you were poetical and all that. Not suprised though.
