Fishing for Tadpoles

You know
You gotta watch out
For
These lessons
They fly about
Absentmindedly
Watching you
Watching the world
Go by
And what you
Gotta realise is
They aren't there
For nothing
You can
Wrap yourself up
In your
Little blanket
You can close your
Eyes
And not see
The warmth
But if you
Don't smell
The chances
The faces
The things
You need to see
As they slip on
By
You might as well
Not turn
On the lights
In the first place
Don't chase
Don't hurry
Walk tall
Smile
And watch
All the little things
As they come to
You
Without asking
Without need
Only because
They are there
And if you don't
See them
Someone else
Will
Always
