Little child
unafraid.
Knowing life is beautiful.
Though the world is fraught with danger,
still learns to read,
seeks to feel.
Knowing through,
learning to ,
be more than what is.
Adult child
learns what’s corrupted.
Growing away from
Hard pleasure
and fresh feeling,
into all knowing ignorance.
Adult child,
so afraid.
Though life lies more than sometimes,
it’s not for you to know wrong.
Time wills all to changing,
Evolution’s aging.
