the little monk
sometimes, the little monk clasps his hands and looks thoughtfully into them as if he was looking into the deepest parts of the earth
the little monk leans his face close to life’s face, until his nose gently touches life’s nose, and his eyes look deeply into life’s eyes
the little monk’s eyes tear up for kindness
the little monk tries to walk in the footsteps of his migrant friends, and share their kind of kindness with everyone
the little monk loves that the word ‘grace’ is in the word ‘gracias’
- Trevor Scott Barton, “the little monk,” 2020
