There is a delicate beauty in the simplicity of a sweet
potato and the perfect hidden starchiness buried within.
There is a delicate beauty where wall meets wall and they kiss in an embrace turned love-child named corner.
There is a delicate beauty in the way a squirrel, plump from
autumn’s harvest, flicks its tail at you in blatant disregard.
And there is a delicate beauty in tiny ant legs carrying tiny
ant body up tiny rock castle.
For the wonder of the world lies in these things.
There is a delicate beauty in how a solitary snowflake guilds
the eye-lashes of those you love.
There is a delicate beauty in how hands fit perfectly into
other pairs of hands as if to say—yes, this is where you belong, and I will
wrap you up tight.
There is a delicate beauty in how the scent of warm soup
comforts body and soul like an old friend.
And there is a delicate beauty in how coffee beans slip and
slide cold off your fingers when you plunge your hand deep into the coffee bean
sack.
It is all.
It is enough.
