Taught by a tot

Through your eyes, I see now,

Little things, to me, you show,

 

You teach me to be present,

And not into brooding, descent.

 

You emphasize on this instant,

And not to dwell on the distant.

 

You show me to be open,

And, not obsess over what's broken.

 

You educate me to prioritize,

And, by words and actions, entice.

 

You instruct me to engage,

And, each one, to aptly gauge.

 

Wise beyond your years,

For you, I am all ears.
