Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
The freedom that acceptance can bring.

The Acceptance

by silpada


My earliest lesson on acceptance.
The long, dark night ends,
as droplets of dew
that had bent the flowers down,
fall softly to the ground.
Then, once again
the flowers stand tall,
lifting their faces
to greet the sun.




This is one of my oldest pieces and very rough. I never entered it because of this. However, as I look at it now 30 years wiser, I like
its pure simplicity. It just is what it is.
