“Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.”

― Neil Gaiman


You see a star.
I see a diamond hanging in the black velvet of night.

You see seed.
I see the possibility of life.

You see a single tree.
I see the beginning of a forest.

You see a bird in flight.
I see freedom take wing.

You see a single tear.
I see the pain of a thousand years.

You see a lake.
I see an ocean of possibilities.

You see a forest.
I see an adventure behind every tree.

You see a wave.
I see the dance of the sea

You see lightning.
I see the true power of the heavens.

You see a blade of grass.
I see the gift of life and all it's possibilities.

You see a shy, quiet and very different girl.
I see me.
