The sunflower shines so beautifully
yet the blade of grass feels so dull compared to the flower.
The large lake overflowing with life
is so great compared to this puddle,
the puddle wonders, will the lake not soon fall into the other streams
and leave this small puddle behind?
The songbirds sing each note
with perfection
but the raven stays quiet,
and sings one solemn note on occasion.
While the trees branch out
and small leaves form,
the little stump stays rigid in the wind
and still feels a snake green,
despite the lack of leaves.
The sky looks over the ground
and the ground looks up to the sky,
envying it because of it’s great height.
