In silence
I hear the rain is rhyming.

I've only ever met two-year olds
capable of showing me what time is.
Always smiling;
taking your hand
without caring
how high the climb is.


It's an element,
a continual experiment
to explore in child-like temperament.

It's a treasure chest,
with love to ingest
and life to caress.

It's golden,
you must appreciate
that which you are holdin'.
