“우리 딸 어디가 아픈가,
무얼 하고 싶은가,
눈을 보면 마음이 보이거든.“

말하지 않아도 느낄 수 있는 그 ‘마음’, 자연과 삶에서 마음을 노래하다.
1991년 월간한국시 동시 부분 신인상으로 등단한 이후 지금까지 왕성한 창작 활동을 해 온 이재순 시인이 일곱 번째 동시집『마음 문 열기』를 오랜만에 선보였다.
자연의 조각들을 그냥 지나치지 않고, 삶의 풍경들과 함께 세밀하게 관찰하여 미처 깨닫지 못했던 재미있는 세상을 보여주기도 하고, 생명의 존엄에 대한 묵직한 메시지를 전달하기도 한다. 무엇보다 이재순 시인의 마음에 대한 깊이 있는 탐구와 안정적인 필력이 따뜻하고 순수한 동심의 세계로 자연스럽게 이끌어준다. 특유의 재미있게 구사한 의성어, 의태어들은 생동감 있게 장면에 빠져들 수 있는 묘미다.

53편의 작품들을 어린 독자들이 주제별로 쉽게 감상할 수 있도록 4부로 나누어 실었다. 1부 헌 니 줄게 새 이 다오 / 2부 아빠 등 밀기 / 3부 꾀 많은 배추벌레 / 4부 수영장에 사는 쥐로 내용에 따라 구성되어 있다.

어린이에게 재미와 공감을, 어른에게는 잃어버린 동심을 되살려주고 꿈꾸게 하고 싶은 시인의 ‘마음’이 고스란히 녹아들어 있는 동시집이다.

<책 속으로>
· 헌 니 줄게 새 이 다오
― 까치야, 까치야 / 헌 니 줄게, 새 이 다오 //
빠진 이빨 지붕 위에 던지려다 / 안 돼, 까치에게 안 줄래 / 할머니 텃밭에 줄 거야 //
빠진 이빨 텃밭에 심고 / 아무도 못 가져가게 / 꼭꼭 밟아줄 거야 //
물주고 가꾸면 / 새 이가 새싹처럼 / 쏘옥 쏘옥 돋아날 거야
--- p.4

· 눈의 말
엄마는 수시로 / 내 눈을 빤히 들여다보신다. //
“엄마, 왜 그래?” //
“우리 딸 어디가 아픈가, / 무얼 하고 싶은가, / 눈을 보면 마음이 보이거든.” //
엄마와 눈싸움하듯 / 마주 보고 있으면 / 어, 어―, / 속상한 마음이 살살 풀린다 //
왜 그럴까? //
고 짧은 사이 / 엄마 눈에 내 마음이 들켰나, / 픽 웃음이 난다 / 그냥 웃고 싶어진다.
--- p.7

· 아빠 등 밀기
아빠의 등을 민다 / 활처럼 굽은 아빠의 등 //
등뼈가 볼록볼록 / 때수건이 지나갈 때마다 걸려 //
손으로 등을 쓰다듬으며 / 아빠와 마음 간격을 좁힌다 //
밀수록 지우개 똥처럼 / 밀려 나오는 때
“그만, 됐다” 하시지만 / 아빠의 몸속 피곤까지
닦아 내고 싶은 / 아빠 등 밀기
--- p.46
