Innocence


INNOCENCE




When child,
String–box phone were miracle
How does sound travel l through thread?
Found them amazing

As a grownup
I know how it works
Not a miracle





Rainbows,
Seed sprouting to become a plant,
Stars, rain…….
Beautiful, fascinating but
Logic says: not a miracle

Space outside is understood

Space within is different
What keeps me going?
What makes me react?
or act?.......
…….?????

Inner Child is in awe!

Innocence is awakened

Now, sees life in everything,
Every being,
Every where, in or out,
Every moment is now a miracle!

                   *      
                                                                                                                                   
Logic of Adult pushed aside
Ruling is innocence of Child
Miracles seen every moment

OSI Prompt : Miracle

This is a marvel of a poem from you Harshadji...when we keep the child in us alive each moment is a miracle.. curiosity makes it so..with sparkle in eyes one sees miracles happening all around us..

Anything viewed correctly or even with innocence is a miracle. Nice thoughts, thank you for reminding me of the transcendence of every moment.

I'm not sure if these were separate poems or one large one, but I enjoyed reading them. The first one about the child's string-box phone made me laugh. :)
