We are born unburdened with the things that will come to filter and shape us. Children are wise as are those elder men and women who see through the clutter and hear through the noise that can suffocate clear thinking. The thoughts of ancient saints and babes ring clear as a bell in your marvelous tale. The ability to see such things so clearly shines quite a light on you my good friend.

While kids cry daddy tires to fulfill their wishes in several ways. Having loss means having involvement in cosmology and dream gives wise feelings. Thoughts of ancient saints we remember. Making play of yesterday and today outlines fortune. This is amazing poem really.10

Always need something new. Human mind always looks for a change. Child's mind is sharper and fast. Beautifully captured in the poem.

An interesting poem. Little incidents often treated as trifles teach us a lot about life n human psyche. Yes, kids are truly wise. Often they teach us more about life than we can ever learn from books. A lovely piece of writing.10

Cosmology is gravitating towards the concept that yesterday, today and tomorrow are interwoven in the same fabric of time and space. In that sense that can be no yesterday, today or tomorrow since they all are one and the same. The universe is bizarre and baffling that we can ever imagine it to be. Great write.10

Children often relate to the world around them based on their experience with it- - such as one day we were driving over the bridge and the river was in flood stage and my daughter said God must have left the water running in the tub.... Their sweet artlessness can sometimes leave us speechless too. A pleasant read! !

With 6 kids, this could have been a full time job. I intervened when appropriate, but managed to block out the screams and force them to entertain themselves when they were just simply bored.: -)

Children are much more clever than we can imagine! I remember my elder son crying on end with his hands raised to see a cow close. He wanted me to lift him up and carry him! Though I knew the hint, I rather dragged him to the place where the cow was grazing. He ran back to where he stood formerly with his hands raised in the same position and started crying all the more violent! As soon as I lifted him up and led him to the cow, he stood silent and watched the cow for several minutes gleefully! We the elders are supposed to do the impossible for them....! Interesting write!

Make me play this yesterday- - - - This really an interesting question posed by the kid- - - -So difficult to answer- - Has science invented how to go back to yesterday ? Thank you for sharing this nice poem.

Einstein and quantum physics have changed science's understanding of time so much so that it has been rendered a construct of the mind. In the absolute sense, therefore, there is no today or tomorrow. In this context, it would be interesting to read Beyond Biocentrism by Robert Lanza. I just finished it. India's Vedanta also takes us to the same conclusion.
