Only the purest of hearts have the ability to hear the dewdrops whisper in the earliest of mornings.
Sometimes the ones with the greed and darkness entwined within, need only a sign from someone else that they too are accepted.

Only the smallest of things have the advantage of seeing the world at its largest point.
Sometimes the ones who stand tall and grand may secretly be timid and afraid, with only their outer image concealing their true feelings.

Only the less flexible have the opportunity to grow and someday make it to a different level.
Sometimes the flexible have no more room to lengthen, leaving no space to progress in time.

Only the youngest of children can have the most unusual friends, who no one else can see,
Leaving the ones who are older, in a narrow-minded and constricted place, with nothing but reality wrapped around them.

Only the ones who forgive and let go will be able to move on,
Leaving the ones who don’t, trapped and lost forever.

Only the old with the tinniest of steps have had the longest journey,
Leaving the rest, with the wider and faster strides to continue on.

Only the ones that live their lives in the moment, will live it to the fullest,
Leaving the minds of the others, behind or ahead of time, giving no space for them to see what lies at their feet.

Only the ones who love themselves, will be able to spread and give love to others,
Leaving the ones who hate and resent themselves, to have no possible way to fully love and take in someone else.
