sweet kinder
creates a beautiful and comfortable bed
for the rhino with the broken foot
so that he has a place to lie down
and recover in peace.

the interesting thing to me is that the kinder just KNEW what was right: wood, stone, shades of brown. When I went to art school the profs cracked my head trying to make me define all that; when I just knew, and then they made me forget.

This child knows that creatures who are hurting need more than just a bed. They need a healing environment. I see an innocent Feng Shui in this arrangement.

Young ones are great about compassion, aren’t they? My youngest daughter always kisses her animals liberally when she finds they’ve fallen off her bed during the night.
