I liked this one. The last stanza works well. I'd have taken issue with your mother about the drinking....children need to drink when they're thirsty.

Interesting read and thought provoking, being born again each time you learn something new.

When I was born the first time I was soft and pink,
Then I was born again when I learned how to think.
As if seeing with new eyes, I was born, yet again,
Because if I wasnâ??t potty trained my bed would really stink.
And mother would never let me go to bed if I took another drink.

At six I was born again at the park when I fell down.
Warm liquid drops of pain descended with a frown.
And the reason I was born again was because pain was just found.

I continue to be born again- just about each day,
Because my mind discovers new things in many different ways.
As long as I live, and perhaps even after
My thoughts, feelings, and knowledge will grow,
Exactly like my laughter.
