| "The Garden in Flower" Claude Oscar Monet |
I'm not a rose
nor am I a daisy
I'm not a tulip
nor am I an aster
you can not see me
but I am here
part of this living meadow
I'm not tall
nor do I have a special scent
my color is undefined
and I'm even not sure
if there is a tribe for me
but I am here
part of this living meadow
You don't see me
and you won't miss me
but I am here.
And I want to bloom
with all my power
till the moment I die
to make this place
a beautiful one
because I want to be
part of a living meadow
My name?
Hm, I'm not sure
if there is a name for me
I usually say
well, it's just me
with the strong wish to be
part of a living meadow

A wonderful poem - sometimes, though, I feel you sell yourself short.
