This is so true! Nothing ages us as fast as the refusal to look with wonder at life. We cannot allow ourselves to lose interest in the world around us. Curiosity keeps the mind alive and well. Thank you for the reminder in this short piece. The artwork is perfect.

This short little one is both clever and true. It is a nice quotation which fits the contest criteria very well. The image you selected was also a good choice. Thanks for sharing.

Wonder is but the first step on life's journey toward wisdom is a close paraphrase of the spiritual expression "the wonder of life is in the first step." Well structured--WW alliteration. Cheers. LIZ

The author's words are awesome, clear and creative. I found the first
two lines of this poem to flow and connect well. The last line says
it all! I really like the theme of this poem - it was created with wisdom! Hope you had a great day!

Oh yes indeed, after watching my two girls grow in knowledge and wisdom, we've had the privilege of watching our grandchildren doing exactly the same thing, and it's such a blessing to watch God help them to grow, blessings, Roy
