Wow, this must be one of the most beautiful poems I've ever read!

TO A CHILD by Christopher Morley

The greatest poem ever known 
Is one all poets have outgrown;
The poetry, innate untold
Of being only four years old

Still young enough to be a part
Of Nature's great impulsive heart
Born comrade of bird, beast and tree
And unselfconscious as the bee-

And yet with lovely reason skilled
Each day new paradise to build
Elate explorer of each sense
Without dismay, without pretence!

In your unstained transparent eyes
There is no conscience, no surprise:
Life's queer conundrums you accept,
Your strange Divinity still kept...

And Life, that sets all things in rhyme,
May make you poet, too in time-
But there were days, O tender elf,
When you were poetry itself!
