More than likely wisdom can be found in both places, Anonymous Poet
It all depends on how deeply you look and how observant you are of the world around you.
Excellent Tetractys poem entry.
Best of luck to you in the contest.

Nice poem! I think the theme is a good one. It's true babies and animals teach us wisdom. I think the structure and rhyme scheme of your poem is strong. The picture is very sweet and is a good match for your subject. Good luck in the contest!

Hello Mystery Poet,

That is a lovely picture of your granddaughter :) I love little babies.

Your message is sweet too. Your syllables seem fine in each line. I especially enjoyed your last line. There's something wonderful in watching a sleeping baby. They are little miracles.

Best wishes in the contest.

A great poem and a fine picture of your granddaughter (she's adorable). As far as I can tell the poetic form is correct - although I have a difficult time with this. Best of luck in the contest! Evi

Aww, she is soooo beautiful!! All that lovely hair and already she has a lovely, captivating smile. Your poem is perfect for the picture, you will have to print it out and put it with the photo in a frame. She will love it when she grows up. Well done, it is a wonderful contest entry, and I wish you the very best of luck. :) Sandra xx

Such a cute picture of your grand daughter. Well written tetracyts contest entry with the prompt-Where? It's a clever question you if the answer is in a cavern..hmm, not sure why it would be there? But it's an artistic answer,I guess. You followed the requirements of this contest...Good luck!

Hi anon, this is a perfect tetractys in true form with the most charming and cute little baby in the picture. Your granddaughter is lovely and so cuddly. I love the last line of your poem 'or in the beauty of a baby's sleep? ' Well done and good luck in the contest. Warm regards Dorothy x
