Wonder

Lord,
I remember 
My youth
And innocence
With startling clarity
And detail. 
I remember 
The wonder at Your bounty,
The reverence for Your creation
The awe of catching and holding
Your creatures. 
Help me recapture that wonder. 
Help me remember the joy felt
Over the leaping grasshoppers
And emerging butterflies. 
In a small and simple way,
Grant me the words
To call forth 
That reverence 
From others.
