The Child within Us

we all have that child within us but how many let that child come through question , I'm somewhat confused over your last two lines as to the bearing i has on the child within Perhaps I'm missing the link? Chrys

thank you for the explanation it follows it was just a bit difficult to see it that way until the explanation although it was almost there I doubted myself shouldn't have I guess Chrys

Hi Peter, I had the same kind of problems as Chrys in getting my head around this one and so perhaps you might consider giving us poor readers a few more clues as to what is going on. I did, I admit, finally understand after a couple of reads that you were going back to conception although it was not immediately obvious why. I also had a little trouble with these lines: Momentarily touched, - Of sight, sound, and vision, Minds entwined; …And, Why only momentarily? Do you mean to imply that child and parent achieve some momentary symbiosis where sight sound and future vision come together in an inspirational flash? Did you mean "with sight..."? As a poem it reads and flows well and I am all for though provoking enigma and its brevity certainly contributes to the latter. But i do quite like enigma. Keith
