“Inner child”…a haiku poem

A haiku poem for your inner child…

 

It doesn’t hurt to admit the truth about thinking—thinking doesn’t always have to be hard work.

The teeter-totter and the carousel and the monkey bars build strong bodies, sure, and they offer a workout for the old brain…try using them, and throw in the sandbox and the swing, too, the next time you’re thinking about what the heck is going on in the real world…

Let some of the innocence of a child into your thoughts.

 

Inner child

 

Callow thoughts scamper

in the playground of my mind,

there, whence wisdom comes.
