Philosopher babies in pink or blue togas
Perplexed by the problems of babies worldwide
Give insight to the reality
Of time babies must bide,

To rely on adults
For all of one's needs
That frustrate a baby
Ready for great deeds,

And knowing that growth is slow
And not impeded
A baby's perspective is patience
Truly needed,

Eventually the togas come off
And philosophy is done
Grown children are here
To play in the sun.
