Discovery belongs to the discoverer:
a fact that age forgets, as if naïveté
were shameful, or innocence a sin.
But no! In fact, the things you found
belong to you; your joy in that moment
is yours forever and for free. Rather, not
bullied into cynical self doubt, stand
as explorers have since human eyes
first opened on an unseen world,
revel in each leaf and blade of grass,
and in it all find the majesty of God
in an endless revelation of creation.
