Teaching a new born

Teaching a new born
Why not say

O child be yourself
Experience and learn.... (From our follies do stay away...).
the midnight oil do burn
and experience and learn...
what holds in the folds of eternity...
tis alone a reality-----
we only shall pass our silliness....

Oh, child! believe in yourself...

.we should not convey our thoughts...
as per our times----

take your own steps... one at a time
and the truths of all existence do combine

I am not going to share
all stupidity of mine....
your own experience will be ...and shall... as it must...and ought to be...
an exclusive find.....by your own mind

I don't want to play about...
as you know I myself have a little clout....
and know too much
I myself doubt..!!!!.

Words to this effect man.....
why tell him how and where to stand...
he has two legs of his own...
let him use them all alone...
tell him to use his mind...
as all time changes..

O man.!

pass not the past of ours
if you can

As mothers and fathers we are ordered to guide and guidance better given by being a good examplary rather than preaching.
