Comment from Alan K Pease
Your turns of philosophy into a well balanced poem is phenomenal. The fact that it is only four lines of verse says things I cannot describe.

Your cute poem expresses well the appearance of Sawyer feeling petulant. He doesn't know how cute he looks. (Or does he?)

Sally, thank you so much :-) I think he might have an inkling since people are always telling his mom how cute he is and there's a little girl he shares a nanny with who tells him he is cute on a daily basis. LOL :-) Brooke

Comment from Cumbrianlass
Oh, yes. Brooke, this is lovely. So much truth in so few words - if only, if only. This should be shared beyond here, imho. The photo of Sawyer is the perfect representation of it too. Innocence. No child is born hating or prejudiced.
Bravo. I love this one.

Comment from Bill Schott
This has a profound resonance that acts to shake the conscience. It provides the observation that what we want our lives to be ought to reflect in in our society.

Instinct ought to have more say
in what our arms are for.
Great comment and artwork. If only man would think before their arms release. Keep the blue waters flowing. LateBloomer

Comment from risktaker
Very TRUE. If more of us would use our arms for hugs, kisses, and loving acts, the world would be safer, and life would be more pleasant. If only more people valued peace instead of war. I love the photo, message, and choice of words.

Hello Brooke,
Thought provoking nice piece of poetry beautifully depicting its depth of thoughts!
Impressive wording with lovely rhyming scheme and lively imagery.
Use of 'arm' and 'arms' is praiseworthy.
Excellent!
