EXPLORING

Babies are funny when they first discover

That they have toes.

Although they have no idea

What they're for;

These strange appendages

Dangling helplessly, uselessly,

Somehow remotely attached.

Must be a nipple or something to suckle,

So, first opportunity, into the mouth.

 

Naturally, time will reveal their true purpose;

The marvelous sights and adventures in store

When a child finally learns

That a foot is for walking,

And finds that first step which opens the door

To a world of excitement;

A world fully new;

A trek across time to where learning begins;

A wondrous journey

Filled with amazement,

Where exploration never ends.
