A 4 year old boy who knows so much and does so much with a definite purpose is a real life Superhero. Hats off to him as well as to you for bringing his acts of courage to light. Thank you, Richard.

I really like this poem. You thoroughly inhabit the consciousness of a child whose generosity of spirit is free of egoism. This is the child's sensibility Jesus associated with salvation but we outgrow and must be forgiven. But in your poem it still shines in all its glory. I don't like at all the cult of comix siperheroes - it's a perversion of the mythic heritage.. But in this poem you raised me to the empyrean with purity and delight.
Wow! I really like your response, Daniel. When I'm reading this poem in public, I do it as if I were that 4 yrs old boy. The response has been so very positive. Watch out for the video!
