Eyes of Innocence

I look into his soft blue eyes And see the face of two before him The sweet innocence and wonder Of all that the world possesses For in him lies the possible Those things that escaped before As our time is too short To experience all the beauty before us His smile and giggle so enchants Free of the worldly weights to come Unencumbered by life’s many roads Choosing all rather than some Such possibilities await this one As with the two before him Which ones will he choose What path shall he take But not today, for time seems endless For now, to explore all he sees When joy is the only decision And beauty in everything abounds
