Creative Child

Creative Child

Parents beware

Let your child be creative

Let them express themselves

But know one thing

If they are painting a flower

And they have use of the paints

If they are left alone for even a moment

They will paint the floor

They will paint the tables

They will paint the walls

And they will paint the chairs

They will make themselves

Every color of the rainbow

As well as some new ones

But nowhere in the room

Nor in the universe will you ever find a flower

Being the great parent, you are

You will tell the child how great it is

And you will clean and dread the next time

When your child gets creative
