Perspective
In moments of introspection
I see myself from afar
Miniscule, insignificant
Another head in the crowd
A vanishing footprint in the sand
My life just a moment in eons unending
At those times I wonder
Might I slip into the blue
Lost and barely noticed?
Then a breeze caresses my cheek
The ripples on the sea wink at me
Leaves clap their hands in glee
And a thrill surges within
I live, a miracle of creation
With potential unimagined
A dreamer sparked by the Infinite
Branded by love and promise
I am

I love the photo and the prose- both are beautiful!
Thank you!
