Fingerprint

Fingerprint

Fingerprints.
A distinctive, unique mark that gleams and glints.
The very identity of each of us. 
An even rarer specimen of Creation's most perfect gem.
A wonderful example of what was and what is to come.
A tactile clue of where we are from. 

Fingerprints. The reality of this earth whispers its hints.
Listen carefully or you might miss it.
It's the very essence of where you choose to stand.
Where you choose to sit.

Unique, rare, perfect, distinctively different,
yet very much the same.
Give it such a name. 
Find the secrets in the subtle hint of every fingerprint.
