Little Boy In The Window... Poem by Rebecca Navarre

Little Boy In The Window...

Rating: 5.0


Little boy in the window, who looks so blue.
Little boy in the window who's, Mother won't
let you, out until the rain is through.. Little
boy in the window, asked for galoshes and rain
coat new. But, reply was short, words little an
few. Roof is leaking, bills past due. Go and find
yourself something else to do.. Little boy in the
window, I was once like you... What can I say, have
to chase rainbows another day, inside you must stay.
But, if you just close your eyes, and think.. Gray
skies, to pink..Wipe those tear drops away, an paint,
a brighter day.. Or, play spin the top, make it dance,
make it rock. Grab a matchbox car, jump so high, drive
so far. Pull out light bright, putting stars in the
night. Shooting marbles and jax, no worries about backs.
Jump in the tub, play boat, play sub. Dive for the plug,
make bubbles.. Give Mom a hug! Put on Dads shoes, maybe
they'll laugh too. Crawl in bed all snug, say your prayers
don't shrug. Maybe tomorrow will be the same, and you'll
have to find yourself a new game...Or maybe tomorrow, it
won't rain! ! !

Oh, did that bring back memmories! ! ! Of being both the child gazing sadly out the window and being the parent trying to think up things for the child to do that would distract and put a smile on his face [personally I always got down on the floor and played with them and we had a great time but I always was a bit on the childish side... hehehe]. I love the texture of this poem- it is made from reality and shows a characterization of both child and mother through her words. You know what- -we Moms don't get enough credit! ! ! ! Beautiful work here- -10++++++++
