A wishful heart
Of a young child

The mystery of magic
And the mystery of love.

Unfathomable to those who seek
Such greatness with a closed heart
Or state of mind.

Differences clash
In nature
And life
But we must push past.

Stop dreading the past
Or hardships to come.
Carry on with a laugh,
Shed a tear when needed,
Then march on past.

A wishful heart
Of a young child,
Is the best kind of heart to have.

as we grow older we lose the carefree sense that we have as a child. we think to much that we are blinded by it all.
