This Little Poppet Holds The World In Her Hands

This little poppet wears wonderful red tights that match the flowers in the garden rows, she like they are growing every day, but she unlike them is inquisitive, and free to run. This photo could be the inspiration for a wonderful novel, a play, the reason someone sad and lonely smiles, the beginning of an adventure, or the answer to a mystery that was written in the stars many moons ago. I confess this is not my child and the photo was an opportunist shot, but one that should bring naught but a smile to those who appreciate the small things in life, to those who see joy in the moments, to those who notice details like colour and the way the light falls upon what we are surrounded by. This child is not my child but like children do all the time, the world over, she is brings a smile to me. In this photo I see hope and potential, learning and fascination, innocence and understanding blossoming. In children I see the future of the world, how we treat the children of the world and how we act as guardians of the earth is ultimately what we inherit in our older years. Protect the future, your future and that of the whole wide world.
