Miracles
Miracles utter beneath their footsteps
Screaming to be heard, pounding to be acknowledged
As they yell, they realize they are silent
And no one knows they exist
A small girl crouches down to her feet
She hears them, and whispers
Why do you scream so loud?
Why do you cry so much?
And the miracles whisper back to the child
How such a beautiful soul she is
They carry her and her feet miles
They show her possibility and opportunity
The girl, much older now, looks back down to her feet
The miracles no longer scream to be heard
Thank you, she calls, thank you for showing me
The amazing wonders this world contains
However they call back to her, in confusion
We did nothing, you showed yourself this world
You brought happiness into your own life
We only reminded you how amazing you are
A tooth-filled smile painted the girl’s face
Yes, this world is beautiful you know.
