Rich
is the soul
whose heart can see
that even life’s coldest path
is sprinkled with
diamonds
So you feel as though
you’re only one
in earthly meadow’s millions,
two feet,
a pair of arms,
sundry assorted parts
that fail to set
your arrangement apart;
but if you chose not to bloom,
the gap where your
smiling face should
appear
would be left bare,
blank in the canvas,
one beautiful brick
short of a load –
so bloom. Take your place
proudly, stand in the gap,
and watch the whole
world grow,
one
little
flower
at a time…
