Elegance Is
Elegance is the shadows of great things
that appear when the light shines
and the world dims.
Elegance is the crabgrass
That stands alone in a field of grass,
choosing to rise above expectations
rather than settle for the average
length
Elegance is the ant
that works without selfish influence
and the soldier who fights
for his beliefs.
Elegance is the cancer patients
who cling to a line of hope
and the child who is our future

My name is Zion Duplechain, I live in Houston, TX and have been writing since I was young My poem "Elegance Is" is about deciding to do something, like deciding to rise above expectations, or to have hope. I hope it shows you these things as well.
