Curiosity

The curiosity of babies, The search in their spirits, The sojourn in their minds, The depth in their eyes. The curiosity of babies, The search in their steps, The unravelling in their findings, The travail in their voices. The curiosity of babies, The trouble in their eyes, The hurt in their gestures The gloom in their moods. The curiosity of babies, The painstaking in their efforts, They are unyielding in their journeys, The turbulence in their pursuits. The curiosity of babies, The pains in their misdirection, The scars in their unguided moments, The losses in random places. The curiosity of babies, The joy in their hearts, The merry in their voices, The smiles on their faces. December 15, 2022. 2022 Poetry Marathon Mile 23 Poetry Contest, Mark Toney.

They do indeed embody all of the above, and yet their innocence remains. Nice one Thompson :) Please excuse me if that is your last name, here I can never tell.
