Walking
Talking
Seeing
Breathing
Living
Loving!
Little boy all eyes wide open.
Spinning head with 360 beauty all about!
The world is alive,
He says, "Oh! What to do with such a wondrous day!"
If I remember correctly, there was a slight pause in the day. A little boy enthralled with the world floated above in the still air. One skimpy leg outstretched with ragged shoelaces and an expectant weight.
Then, a plunge!
The street I lived on hadn't been repaired in years, and right at the end of it a large hole had developed in the nearby grass. Perhaps a sinkhole of some sort. There was a little boy who ran around our street for a few weeks. I used to wave hello. Now I never see him. How strange.

As a child, my friend fell into a big hole once. We got him out and ran screaming off into a beautiful day. When I tried to remember who he was, this is what came to mind.
