Lines Composed At a Mid-Day Meal

Lines Composed at a Mid-day Meal

To stare in ambivalence
At all things
Is to be in reverence 
Of all the small things
Like what a child brings
For, like a bird visiting upon my door
My sweet adoring child
Sings only of his joy for all.
After all, that is what love is for.
When children come to call.
