Through A Young Child’s Eyes
Looking through a young child’s eyes
all creatures are aliens invading your space…
friendly and hostile aliens of every shape and size
like birds and dogs and fish and cats…
like spiders and snakes and flies and bats…
strange and puzzling aliens everywhere you look—
Yet the strangest of alien races
are giants with angry faces
trying to communicate
not to laugh and throw your food and plate!
