birds passing on the secrets...


Birds passing on the secrets of the universe to sleeping baby. Michael Leunig
Michael Leunig (1995)


sleeping baby holds the key to the universe
unwittingly


teenager holds the key
he thinks
she feels


man seeks the door
woman seeks the garden


old man and old woman
remember
some birds
beyond a door
in a garden
somewhere
