Flying Baby
A poem.
February 25, 2010
Flying Baby听A baby sits quietly
听on his mother's lap,
听frightened and calm,
听weary and curious,
听beloved 鈥� and so 鈥� loving.
听Old ladies struggling
听with irregular carry-ons spot him
听like a star on the horizon.
听Passing by, each one
听touches the baby's head
听with detached and utter
听affection, sparks of God.
听听鈥� C. Malcolm Ellsworth
