Adornment Of Scars |

Polished by wear over the passage of time sharp edges are worn and refined by the cutting knife of passing rage wearing away the harsh of rough because the smoothest of smooth is never enough. It winds in the in between and up, then down; until the perfection of polish is found. But, perfection? Tis not meant to be look closer, you can still see; although perhaps faded are images marred displayed proudly the adornment of scars. I really want to care, I want to feel something, let me dig a little deeper nah, still nothing~ my give a DAMN is busted.

A thought provoking, profound poem, dear Donna. Some scars are difficult to erase, but I think we should learn to be aware of our (and of others') original perfection, so that we may shine. Your smiling eyes speaking of your beautiful soul are a clear example of this. Love and hugs. Margherita |
