Sitting daintily
Watching quizzically.
A pause, a flinch, a shudder
An eye dart and then a jump.
Over the wall into a whole new Eden
New scents, new friends
New foes, new tastes
All a single jump away.
How is life so easy
That with one leap
She can enter a whole new world?
A single bound.
Not a leap of faith but
Simply a set of muscles
And a thought
Is all it takes to enter
Into a whole new world.
