"Goethe war kein "Kinderdichter", aber er war ein Dichter auch für Kinder. Auch wenn Goethe heute manchem fern zu sein scheint - seine Lebensnähe drückt sich aus in Versen und Worten. Das Dramatische, das Heitere, das Abenteuerliche, ja Gruselige, an dem Kinder sich und ihre Sicht der Dinge und der Welt erproben, muss nicht kindertümelnd daherkommen. Wahrhaft muss es sein, dann wird es wirken. Und wer schrieb klarer, wahrhaftiger, plastischer als Goethe? Durchaus mit Anspruch, aber ohne pädagogischen Zeigefinger.

Günümüzün teknolojik imkânlarından da faydalanılarak dünyanın öte ucundaki bir olay, durum vs. hakkında fazlasıyla bilgi edinme imkânı söz konusudur. Şair bu duruma olan tepkisini, duyarlılığını şiirinin içinden mi göstermelidir, başka bir eylemde veya etkinlikte mi bulunmalıdır? Bu tartışılır. Poetik ve estetik kaygılar göz ardı edilmeden kurulacak bu izlekteki bir şiir önemlidir elbette. Ancak, söz konusu şiirle şair/şiir yargılanıyorsa bu çok tehlikeli bir durumdur. Şair başkaldırandır. Şiir biriciktir, ilk sözdür. Başkasından talimatla alınmaz.

Within the hollow wall of an old brick mansion, away up near the roof, there lived a family of mice. It was a snug little home, pleasant and quiet, and as dark as any mouse could desire. Mamma Mouse liked it because, as she said, the draught that came through the rafters made it cool in summer, and they were near enough to the chimney to keep warm in wintertime.
