She ran to Him

She ran to him, knowing, what no one else knew

(Knowing he would carry her)

She ran to him, knowing, what she was too young to know

(too small to see, too new to know)

That he would hold her thumb, kiss it


She ran to him, with overweening arrogance, unconceivable presumptiousness

un-justified pride

Knowing he would comfort her

She ran to him, with wisdom beyond the hokhmim

Knowing he would cuddle her


And so the child came crying

Demanding the kiss of God

And so the toddler came indignant

Ordering the arms of God


And so the kingdom cometh

For so does it come

And so the child enters

For she is too young, she knows
