Wonderments and Such
Children should discover
the tales of Robin Hood,
Hansel and Gretel,
Snow White
and many others of course,
but also,
they need to visit beaches
and get down on their knees to play
in the sand.
For it is there they will
begin to imagine
how many uncountable
grains of sand
must cling to the edges
of our world.
And thus,
when they turn their
gaze to the night sky
they will also
wonder
how many stars
must torch all corners
of our Universe.
And so too,
these story tellings,
these imaginings,
these wonderments,
will help them
peek inward
and examine themselves
with a much greater
sense of humility.
