Array ( [sid] => 171051 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => New-borns [time] => 2012-02-29 05:26:28 [hometext] => inspired by a recent visit to see my nephew's new-born baby girl - and the reactions of a house full of adults to her every movement and sound. [bodytext] => * * *

Words are not necessary;
nor strategy, nor good or bad behaviour.
For them, only their inherent birthright
of perception and instinct - supreme gifts
that together seduce the unbounded attention
of the mature majority - the well-schooled
in enlightenment and manipulation.
From the mouths of babes .....
grammarless, inarticulate, positive persuasion.


Such eloquence!

Smile at the warmth that Tommy brings in the wonderful way he brings the heart of family to the page and leaves the sigh of contented souls who need look no furthur.

I liked it before the changes but still like. I know something clicked with me more today so maybe the changes made it better??? Heck if I know.

I know as a poet, I constantly see ways of changing the original but then again I wonder at times if I'm trying to fix something that is not broken.

I know today, as I read again (as opposed to last night) the thing that finally clicked was that children are so damn honest and innocent. Nothing as of yet as marred them. Ah, I could go on and on but I'll just shut up now.

Keep a writin'!!!

Tim
