Very cool piece. Proof that we are not so complicated after all. And that if you can step on the dozen or so stones laid out before you, one, can reach the heart. The trick though, I think, is not everyone is a straight shooting poet; meaning a properly constructed expression can be a valuable road map. Yet many choose to "obscure" that sacred journey.
I like this piece. Short and to the point. It's a lot harder to write whimsical poetry than ppl think. A lot of time it comes off as cheesy, or preachy, but I think you found a good balance here.
