in the corner of the room
my beautiful flower stands proud
in a simple crystal vase
on a marble pedestal
the world glances at her beauty
her bright petals
wandering over eventually
leaning to inhale her intoxicating scent
I see your beauty too…
fantastic when one focuses on the whole
your beauty much richer than your
tender, delicate, gentle
petals
alone
the strength of the marble
light shimmers from fantastic facets
your scent subtly influencing the entire room
one just needs proper awareness
to appreciate it from afar
close proximity to the junction of two walls
can still be the centre of the room
…if the observer has the right perspective
