The wonder in a baby\'s eye

WELCOME JM ~ and thank you for a beautifully constructed first poem. Love the rhyme pattern aabxbx etc (it adds emphasis) and the poem pulsates with rhythm couched in confession which makes it exhilarating to both read and recite ! It reads very cathartic to me ~ thanks for caring and sharing. The whole of human existence shines from a baby's eye and you have captured that. Love the visual ~ it exemplifies the message of your poem. Our life is a rushing stream and then it plunges "uncontrolled" into the waterfall (one of natures greatest beauties) and then it meanders our again ~ perhaps with a less frenetic flow ? I hope you found the whole poem (as you indicate) cathartic. Love the final stanza "Then I can let go and be free ........ To be content with what I have ~ And to no longer live in the past ~ Of what keeps me from sleep !". Thanks again for caring and sharing ~ Every Blessing ~ BRIAN
