    Linked to Perfection

    DateFriday, March 4, 2011 at 11:12PM

    I reach for them

    beads that cascade through my fingers.

    Descending so gently

    that merely the grasp of their casing

    leaves me

    wiser,

    stronger,

    inching nearer to a reflection I hope to see,

    a me I yearn to be.

    Realizing—

    that each day their splendor greets my hands

    I hold truth
