You can't contain a child

You can't contain a child
Let one loose in a field
And she will run, fly

Too much life in the limbs to walk
Always the full charge

All this waiting life calls for dash and tear
Tearing to open this moment’s present
To be present to it all

    1. Oh, you should have seen Amelie run across the garden to join her friends on the trampoline this sunny day - so much energy and delight! :-)
