She dreamed of magnificence
She dreamed of magnificence (original on etsy)
All her life,
she decided
that the best way to live
was to Dream of Magnificence.
Everywhere she walked,
she Saw Magnificence:
in the trees, the blossoms,
the stray dog at midnight,
the fire on the hills,
the song she found herself singing beneath her breath.
Everyone she met,
she Saw Their Magnificence:
their radiant possibility,
their hearts of gold,
their divinity,
the angel in their eyes.
And anytime she Forgot,
she looked in the mirror,
and spoke:
I see the Beauty in You.
I see the Beauty in You.
I see the Beauty in You.
Until she remembered,
and Saw.
