Words of Wisdom Wednesday

This is at the entrance to the Louisiana Children’s Museum in New Orleans :

I tried to teach

my child with books

He gave me only

puzzled looks

I tried to teach

my child with words

They passed him by

often unheard

Despairingly

I turned aside

“How shall I teach

this child?” I cried

Into my Hand

he put a key

“Come,” he said,

“play with me.”
