Man child…
harboring curiosity…
Cast a side eye
…to mommy…
Hey, look at me…
(she ...smiling)
shaking her head,
She …gets back
to her chores… he
Jumping up…
suddenly, he
…vocalizing wonder…
Issues,
what…
is unmistakably…
A challenge
…to the universe…
Look at me…
and with war child’s
...defiance...
Double pumps
both fists into the air…
Seems pleased…
Leaning forward,
cautiously
Peering intently,
into the unknown…
Mommy
looks up, around…
He’s already
made his move ….gone…
Just as fast …as…
Road runner
…chasing the coyote
Legs ablur…
Leaping into action
…over the edge…
New badge… explorer…
On a journey
…to discovery
…to life…
