Arley - we saw you today.
You are small.
But you make a big impression.
While the world debates
Your implications,
You are quiet.
Cuddled.
A dormant explorer.
A friend in wait.
My daughter.
To visit you
Is to know how much knowing
Can pass between the observer
And the observed.
They say you can hear now.
Which one of us is the better listener?
In nine months
I hear nine million words.
Be one of them.
