Fungus Find

"Oh Mom! What is that across the street?" 

yelled over her shoulder

as she runs to the curb. 

She knows not to cross the road without permission.

With a glance out the window

 I recognize that I need a glance out the door

to get closer

 to the mysterious find of hers

"I believe it is a fungus;

from the mushroom family,

but with a closer inspection

we will certainly more see."

Crossing over to inspect

Through camera lens and her eyes

I am drawn back to nature

with wonder at the form and mystery of life.

~~~

I really am constantly bowled over by the view 

of the world through my daughters eyes. 

Just breath-taking and beautiful.

Thank you doesn't do justice to what they offer me.
