.3. An Open Door Poem by David Threadgold
.3. An Open Door
Ten chubby fingers
On two chubby hands
Reach for support
To help when she stands
First time stood alone
She’s starting to talk
Put best foot forward
Beginning to walk
Her world will now change
Many things to explore
Now she can reach
She will open the door

Just when we think that we have the place child-proofed...they learn to walk! ! ! Then parents have a whole new set of concerns! : -) Hugs, Dee
the whole growing up process so well expressed in just a few lines simple and nice
A very precious time in a child's life. So much to discover with their little minds going in a million directions. Sweet poem, David, I loved it! Warm Wishes, Marilyn
That's so cute and brings back such warm memories. The only thing is, once they open that door soon they are all gone. Time is certainly fleeting. Great little poem! (10)

this is such a wonderful poem, simple and effective in evoking emotions we have all felt when a child takes a fist step and begins to explore. he slowly becomes a person and is no longer so helpless.
