People
Each person
Is a treasure trove
Of potential;
A closed book
Until you open the pages
And take the time to read.
Each an individual
Irreplaceable soul
Precious,
Priceless,
Placed here on this earth
For a purpose.
All of us
With different backgrounds
Colours sizes shapes
Talents perspectives experiences
Yet each of us
Bound together
By something greater.
Each with our unique stories
A network of other souls
Surrounding our own
Like a web
Stretching out wider and wider;
Family friends colleagues
Neighbours, passers by in the community,
The man at the corner dairy
The woman who walks her dog
Past your window every morning …
Like pearls on a string
We are all connected
All linked together;
Alone we are
But a shadow of the beauty
And have only a breath of the strength
That is ours
When we stand united.
