Each Movement Miraculous

Nature moves at its own pace
gently
one hidden shift at a time
each movement invisible

We humans race
violently
one great step at a time
each movement blundering
making our next move
more violent
or not at all

Children move at their own pace
gently
one amazing stride at a time
each movement miraculous

We humans race
to train the child
to take one great step at a time
each movement blundering
and the child learns
to make the next move
more violent
or not at all

If only we humans
could move like the child again
gently
one amazing stride at a time
then we too could make
each movement miraculous
