What we need to know forgotten
This is inspired by, not necessarily directly about, the little munchkins. :)
Ought not saddle unbridled dreams
racing wild toward yonder horizons
without first the fall embraced;
peaceful in life’s harrowing jeopardy
and these dreaded potentialities
beneath its promise-filled bosom.
Like children chasing the breeze
sway and flows the heart's whimsy,
but for the rarest, precious exceptions
an everlasting trip and tumble
over sun speckled pathways
on bare soles encumbered and raw.
The Little Ones step light and beautiful
free for exploration’s discovery,
life’s song an easy harmony -
effortless notes floating weightless
distill troubled thoughts to ether
to evaporate far, far and away.
Infant smiles born of the heart
purified water to feed soulful germination -
pristine eyes gather life as itself,
unadulterated, accepting and sincere,
these things we would be, should be
would trepidation not be our god.
What we need to know forgotten -
play as innocents in ancient sand
whirl as eagles on Southern winds rising
race as porpoises through oceanic depths
dance as angels atop spirit’s fire
knowing again what has been forgotten.
