in the corner of the room 

my beautiful flower stands proud

in a simple crystal vase

on a marble pedestal

the world glances at her beauty

her bright petals

wandering over eventually

leaning to inhale her intoxicating scent

I see your beauty too...

fantastic when one focuses on the whole

your beauty much richer than your

tender, delicate, gentle

petals

alone

the strength of the marble

light shimmers from fantastic facets

your scent subtly influencing the entire room

one just needs proper awareness

to appreciate it from afar

close proximity to the junction of two walls

can still be the centre of the room

...if the observer has the right perspective
