The light shimmered and danced
Along the ocean waves
Sand pipers ran to catch periwinkle
A glimmer catches
Attention
A beautiful shell
Cracked & broken
And another
And another
And another
A reminder that
Right now
This moment
It’s ok to feel
What you need to feel
Be what you need to be
To realize that even
In your imperfections
You’re still perfect
Right now
As you are, today
So give yourself
A little credit
A little praise
You’re not the person
You were yesterday
Tomorrow
You won’t be the person
You are today
Embrace your now
Love, cry, feel, be, enjoy
Find your happy
In quiet
In the waves
Stirring up beautiful
Broken seashells
That will remain
Imperfectly perfect
Just like you
