The tender leaves on springtime trees, rough pebbles on the ground
The snowflakes drifting on the breeze that fall without a sound
Are all unique and precious, if we take the time to see
No two have been identical in all eternity.
Is this not true of people too? Be mindful, then, of each
Both strangers and those close to you have useful things to teach
The two of us part richer if we pass the time of day
And don’t just brush each other off, then hurry on our way
Preoccupied by urgent schemes of business, love or power
By gambling on our future dreams, we lose the present hour
A life is forged of moments linked together like a chain
Live each in full – for down this road we shall not pass again
- Neil Harding McAlister

Beautiful poem and beautiful images, Kristen!
Oh that is such an amazing little person!! LOVE them all Kristen! just amazing.
Awww…gorgeous babe, beautiful photos. Love the toe creases.
Just stunning! I just love the clarity you get with your newborns!
Beautiful pictures Kristen. It was so much fun doing this photo shoot at your studio. I love that you captured her little grin. Her daddy and I are often dazzled by the hint of her smile but never fast enough to grab the camera.
Wonderful series of works like all of your shots they are ART !
sweet sweet smile
