Vantage Point
Things we take for granted
Might be treasures in disguise
When reflected from the vantage point
Within a baby's eyes.
From a teapot to a squirrel
Or an airplane, flag or bird,
There's amazement when you offer
Explanation with a word.
You can watch the wheels start turning
As the pieces start to click
And vocabulary blossoms;
Repetition makes it stick.
For the world is filled with wonder
To those figuring things out;
It's a joy to be a part of
Teaching what it's all about.
