Kaleidoscope The crystal shards left lying Scattered on the floor Reflect a kaleidoscope of colors More beautiful than before. Only when it’s broken Do the lights dance across the glass The future’s shining, sparkling Let go of the past. Weep not for the crystal Although broken, it has grown From a symbol of holding it together To someone shining on her own. |

Not broken, but transformed. Eloquent, Tara.  --Kess Full fathom five thy father lies, Of his bones are coral made, Those are pearls that were his eyes; Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange... --William Shakespeare, from The Tempest |
