If I’ve touched her life to the quick
then another blessing is mine.
Those eyes grow clearer
and the spirit more willing
as if light
were growing inside.

She’ll hear the wind’s calling
on her own now
and turn, herself, surely
to those subtle urgings.

And I, I can stand in awe
that that same deep current
that fills and empties my heart so
now looks back
thru the eyes
of another child awakening.
