As her elderly eyes
noticed her
broken,
she said:
"Child, even the greatest
treasures
are hard to find,
flowers start from dirt,
stars shine brightest
at night.
Be patient.
It will find you
someway, somehow.
Trust and never
doubt its power.

If I died tonight,
I'd like to come back
as your morning
meditation.
To strengthen you,
yet keep you
at peace.

When she stares at herself
in the mirror,
she swears up to the heavens
that she was cursed
with every
imperfection.
But I tell 'ya,
when I look at her,
I swear up to the heavens
that she-
that she is the most
perfect human being
I have ever met.
