i see you there
“The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world’s problem” (mahatma gandhi)
i see you there hiding behind the bright flickr flame of the others
curled in shyness
thinking you are in the shadows
of the sunlight’s blaze
i see you there
soul burned bright
curled inwards
letting brighter blossoms sing out loud
thinking your potential is lost
amidst the blooms already dancing
but all that potential
clear in its intention
flings itself at my gaze
and i gasp at your beauty.

this lovely poem could apply to so many things.
as i read it I am thinking of a beautiful friend who has lost
her confidence and zest for life.
thanks for this. xo
