David Crandall Poet Ode

Notes About The Poem

4/28/2025 for Self Esteem Odes sponsored by Crystol Woods

Part of a Beautiful Tapestry

Vince says I'm intelligent, creative, and quirky.
I am all those things,
as these are features of all people,
as well as all animals,
and plants.
Look!

I belong 
and am a special part of 
this beautiful tapestry,
and have the opportunity
to live harmoniously within it,
and shine!
Like all life, I have, not imperfections, but quirks,
and like Vince, on most days, I am kind.

Kristina Carvey May 7, 2025 at 3:10 PM Really enjoyed reading your ode about yourself as seen in the eyes of a close loved one! Your perspective is reflective and love how you compare your human traits with that of nature leading the reader to think more deeply about the big life questions including the never ending nature/nurture debates we have all had discussions on.
