The Little Things
July 27, 2014
I can’t help notice the beauty
in the uneven branches,
the loose string on a worn towel,
the wrinkles on old hands
or in a tee shirt thrown carelessly
on the ground.
My mom telling me to pick it up,
but it is so perfect
like ripples in water,
the wind in the trees,
a bush, half dead,
half blooming,
an orange leaf in a forest
of green,
the odd one out
or the one that changes the world.
For life is
a perfect imperfection.
