WRITINGS FROM THOMAS BERRY

The child awakens to a universe,
The mind of the child to a world of wonder,
Imagination to a world of beauty,
Emotions to a world of intimacy.

It takes a universe to make a child, both
   in outer form and inner Spirit.  
It takes a universe to fulfill a child.
Each generation presides over the meeting
  of these two in the succeeding generations,
So that the child is fulfilled in the universe
And the universe is fulfilled in the child
While the stars ring out in the heavens!
