I mean, lovely obviously. But... odd for a baby?
Ever alert. You don't see that often, not on day 1.
Even on the breast - look, there! Just a hint - he can't really see, can he? He never really settles on anything - but eyes just flashing from side to side.
Like a coney in the desert, looking out - for a fox or a mate.
Like a girl out looking for her lover, but fearing her dad's gonna arrive.
Like a guard on a wall, watching - for an enemy, or the king.
I wonder what he's looking for?
Still, he'll soon calm down.
He can't keep that up forever.
He'd never settle."
He'd never settle."
Strange how he ate that locust too!
