Where the truth lives

Inside the heart of a child

Is where the openness to truth lives

Innocence open wide to mysteries

And adventure

Always wondering and questioning

Do not shut her down

Listen deeper than his words

Be the one this child can depend upon

And if you do not know the answers

Do not lie

And when his or her tears fall

Let them pour all of this emotion out

While holding wide an open field

Where questioning

And wondering

And feeling

Blossoms slowly

Into wisdom
