The Notice of Lotus

It reaches for the sun, or does

the light reach it?

Its roots are deep.

And finally one day

it breathes the air and not the water.

How many times in our lives

do we do make the journey

of a lotus?

And you have been wearing

this lotus necklace so long.

I never noticed that 

it was a lotus until today.

And yesterday 

I saw the lotus floating 

on the water 

for the first time.

 I understood you more.

The lotus finally

reached me or 

did I reach it?
