Child's Domain
by Sandy Lujan
The author of this poem, Cindy Sotelo, has two daughters who have benefitted from services at Alta Mira. Cindy also served on Alta Mira's board of directors. This poem was written during a very trying time, before Cindy found help at Alta Mira. Cindy believes that all adults should spend more time in the world of acceptance and laughter that is every child's domain. Cindy has been asked to sell the copyright to this poem, but has chosen to share it with the families and friends of Alta Mira.
Child's Domain
Take heed, adults, as you draw near
This is a child's domain
And once you choose to enter in
You can't remain the same
This is the land where fairies dance
Where fancy reigns supreme
Where yesterday's a smile
And tomorrow's still a dream
Tickles are the currency
Laughter they afford
And memories are the vessels
In which happiness is stored
Learning and fun combine into one
Filling the hours with play
Merry tunes accompany
The mischief of the day
When you return to Grown-Up Land
Your words here will remain
Tread lightly please, as you come in
This is a child's domain
