Being as Little Children

by Raymond A. Foss

Wonder, amazement, at the littlest thing
marvels in all of creation, faith, attachment
in the sound of familiar voices,
Voices of mother, of father, drawing the
head, their eyes, tilting to the common timbre
the nurturing of their parents

Another parent, more loving, eternal
calls us too, to know us, and us them
to turn our beings, our gaze
our lives toward them, to
loving guidance, ageless lessons
distinguishing good from evil,
paths to follow, to avoid
lessons for life, best heard,
when we are open, humble
as little children

It's going to be a busy weekend here. My husband and I are helping one of our sons move. What a chore that is going to be but the weather will be nice so that is a blessing.

Just not feeling very creative today so I posted the poem and added a few photos out of the hundreds and oodles that I have of my grandchildren.

Have a great weekend.
