The Silent Lotus
The Lotus Who Found Her Voice.
There was a time when time stood still;
She was frozen,
Silenced;
Scared to speak,
Both verbally and on paper;
Then, the fragile pink lotus,
Uncurled her delicate petals;
Petals around her throat that had
silenced her voice for years,
Her wide mouth opened
Her vocal cords uncurled;
Allowing a sound to escape brighter and more musical
than any instrument ever played.
The sound was beautiful,
It stood for everything she believed in,
She could never be silenced again;
She had found her voice,
Her freedom;
She was going to use it,
And when she did,
She created a better world for
herself and others.
