Perspective
A pebble is a mountain.
A snowflake is a blizzard.
To an ant.
A small branch, a perch.
A single tubal flower a burst
Of energy to a hummingbird.
A blade of grass, a shelter to hide,
For a grasshopper
A mattress on the floor, a lovely place to rest
For a homeless child who huddled in a box
Knees to chest.
A puddle is an ocean to a bee,
Pollinating the earth, from sea to sea.
Perspective is ours; we can own that word
Define it as good, define it as bad
Either way, gratitude is a feeling
We all have
