Perfect

 

 

Unfortunately the world isn’t perfect
Nor anyone that resides
Perfection can only be
What you see with your own eyes
If you allow for imperfections
Then perfection can be seen
For only true perfection is
Positive and negative balanced in between

I totally get what you're saying here! No one is perfect...and in a world where we all try to be perfect...we should just focus on being our unperfect selves.

Dear silent-tear,

thank you for submitting this thought-provoking poem. You did a great job. I must admit though that I might have preferred some punctuation or white space to help guide my reading. I had to read the poem a couple of times just to see where the logical breaks were in the flow. That was initially distracting from the poem's meaning.

Are you familiar with the Japanese concept of "perfection in imperfection"? You are probably aware that the Japanese value their tea ceremonies highly. But when a potter creates that perfect tea set, they purposefully add a chip or unevenness to the tea pot or drinking vessels. What a smart and insightful approach!

Please keep up the good work!

Yes, perfection can be over rated, and i like how you simply stated it here.

this is lovely and really can strike people awake. ^-^ i enjoy writings that keep you chained to reality, because sometimes you wander off.
