I have nibbled
the piggies
that were around
the Meadow

and which
you were probably
baiting
for capture.

Forgive me
they were there
so pink
and so acquiescent.

3-year-old recites poem, “Litany” by Billy Collins (via @torchstar, via drchelpka). This is one of my favorite poems, and I love his recitation of it.

Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.
Just keep going. No feeling is final.
