with curious eyes I

observe my surroundings

wth my mouth I taste the

cohesion of the world

with your kindness my world

expands and enrichens

with every feature I’m

exposed to of this world

cradle me with treasures

always, the more I taste

the better I will bloom

but be mindful I need

no extravagances

ever, and best of all

expose me to your love

    This is what got me, and will stick with me for a while, the ending:

    ‘but be mindful I need

    no extravagances

    ever, and best of all

    expose me to your love”

    Well done, Selma!
