Wonder

Have you ever noticed the wonder in a baby's eyes?

I want to see the world like that again, 

With eyes that are always surprised and delighted.

No expectation, no disappointment, just wonder. 

Remember when life delighted you like that?

It did and it can again. 

We just need to choose to see it with those eyes.

The eyes haven't changed, the world beyond the eyes hasn't changed, so what has? 

The mind behind the eyes.

It's just the mind that distorts what the eyes see,

The mind brings forward memories and pain that clouds the delight, 

But that's not real.

Like the sun, it just needs a little light and the clouds will dissipate.

And then we will see again, 

See the beauty and drink it in.

I want to see the world like that again,

I invite and welcome the light.
