Baby Monks

pondering trees
photos
pictures on the wall
minutes gazing into the garden,
pond fish swirling
taking everything in
a whole day of - noticing

the genius of baby monks

    Babies and poets: the great observers of the human condition. Only an old poet wets his pants more than a baby, though.

    Old Ollie,
    I think there is a wisdom and peace to be seen with these words today.

    Best wishes, Eileen

    I love the curiosity of those baby monks! I love seeing the world through their eyes.
