A cornucopia of vibrant flames
A young girl peering into a reflective lake
The white tufts of cotton mold and shape over and over
showcasing the depths of their versatility
The moving picture never asks permission to change
Never explains the shape it takes
It just is
It changes with the gusts of winds and flows until it reaches its destination
And then the process starts all over again
Constantly floating
Constantly changing
And no one questions what it is
No matter the shape size or color
It’s will to change is as strong as it’s right to stay the same.
This poem beautifully captures the essence of transformation and self-acceptance. Through vivid imagery of clouds in the sky, it draws a touching parallel to human identity and growth. The contrast between the “vibrant flames” and the reflective lake creates a sense of both dynamism and introspection.
Nice work!
