There is a certain beauty
in what we cannot see;
in what we cannot touch,
in what we fail to be.
There is a certain wisdom
that we refuse to know:
Just looking in the mirror
won’t let your colours show –
Just doing without thinking
won’t let you understand
that there are joys more valuable
and of a luscious blend –
they linger in between the lines
and where the pauses are,
they beckon with affection
and they are never far.
