Every day I am reborn
as something
new.
I am a prim cherry blossom,
a sleek flying fish,
a youthful scholar
I am everything all at once;
a savory dash of powdery cinnamon,
a sprig of scorched chard.
I am the pulse of the air
I inhale,
I am one of seven billion
Homo sapiens.
But no matter
what or
who
I am, I will always gaze at our world of
infinity
from behind the same gleaming obsidian pupils,
the same shining chestnut irises.
