In Plain Sight
by James ZealyFragile simple beauty
Is not noticeable
Even in plain sight
Yellow petals reach
Skyward as if to say
Come to me please
Brown curly haired waif
Approaches and answers
The petals plea
Revelation of sight
Miraculous wonderment appease
Answers Jonquil bequest
Tiny hand flat footed knelt
Extends to meet
And touches beauty in plain sight 10/31/2008
Author's Note: My daughter was 2 when we knew she could see. We took the most profound picture of her kneeling flat footed, and reaching for a yellow jonquil. simple beauty at its best.
