we can build a bridgebut if no one uses itit’s just a structure
thousands of blossomsare impressive because ofeach one by itself
with the sharpest toolswe can create the best workwith the least effort
as life’s metaphora fake chimp in a fake cageis a bit spot on
each drop of waterbegan today not knowingof the waterfall
some wait patientlyfor it to be the right timebefore jumping in
there is a momentwhen the flowers first openwhen the world feels new
the calmest watersare shallow lakes, unableto kick up a fuss
we shine our own lightso that others will noticethe beauty we see
we take for grantedthat which makes life possibleuntil we need it
