Six Words Friday: Wonder

He is wonder-full, every day discovering
Seeking out and exploring the nuances
The world? His treasure chest, replete.
wondering
I wonder what he thinks about.
I wonder what he is feeling.
I wonder what makes him wonder.

In the morning, fresh eyes open.
Look around in wonderful amazement.
Wanders and wonders and happens upon...

a bug sitting atop a leaf.
or a bird in flight above.
or big sister offering a kiss.
wonder too
In wonderment, he draws a breathe
Eyes widden and fingers reach longingly.
He revels in his fresh findings.

921... 922 days: a life neophite.
When does the wonder in ordinary - -
simply subside, slip away, or... STOP?
wonder

Great photos...wondering what they are thinking never ceases. They amaze us and it's wonderful to see the world through their eyes.

They are such wondrous little creatures, aren't they? :) How I'd love to get a peek inside the workings of the precious little minds that seem to make my world go round. :)

I hope ordinary wonder never stops.
Slows... well, yes. But not stops.
I hope.
