Short Swans

Shatter the mirrors that screen us
That taunt us with their flaws and lies
We are our own and that’s the only thing that matter to us
We are the new breed of ugly ducklings
Who never turn into your graceful swans.

Good poem. Short, sweet, and to the point! ~Jess

Wow...so much is said in those few lines. I thought this was beautiful. It takes such a talent to get your point across so perfectly and so briefly. Well done - count on my vote.

(big hugggsssssss) Don't forget that the ugly duckling had his day too, we are all beautiful deep inside and from the outside is not how we must distinguish each other but through understanding! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
