Too Much

When the world seems all too much,
  Watch the baby, encourage the smile.
See the child in wonder, watch the world,
  Spinning, turning, happily dizzy.
Hear the note of pain in the song,
  Turn back toward full round joy.
See the sunset warm your heart,
  Turning shadow and light fully.
Hear the owl call in the night,
  Who, who do we seek, because
The fullness of the world starts in
  The little acts of wonder, joy, and love
We bring to this broken world,
  Bring it expecting change.
