This poem is a 09/0501 revision of an earlier poem.  - poetheart 09/05/01

Quiet truth in passion buds
Revealed with love
Which like a flame of candle in the dark
Glows warmly

Sunset's violet glimmer
Upon a field of blue
Unlocks the beauty of ordinary sky
Before night stars glitter

Appreciate them for their own sake
In their own time
What is
Is real

So, too, you are perfect
Because you exist
And know the truth of your being
Not fearing or judging
But doing what is right
According to who you are
