resilient observation yields gifts beyond impeccable vision

by Frankie Sanchez

there is more to you than your beauty,
more than just the way you bend sunlight,
more than the image imprinted by way of my eye,
you have layers and depth
and reasons,
you are made up of meticulous pieces,
portions made indivisible,
highlights,
and flaws,
and qualities,
but what is visible to the naked eye
makes you an optical phenomenon,
a gift,
a reminder
that observing you in all your uniqueness
yields perspective and an open mind.

I thought it was about a person. Then I read Don's comment & compared it to the title and Voila! A rainbow! - Very cool poem, Frankie.

i love being around people who make you look at life like a prism. some people have that profound impact you're talking about & they radiate. also, being around these people keeps you on your toes and as an artist of sorts, makes the mind expand and grow and always want more. sharp words here. this individual must have the "it" factor. good stuff fs.

(I think it can be about a rainbow or a person. A tree. Whomsoever, this is fine art.
