Perfect
Void of any colorful hue
Yet as bold as any with
As complicated as any I have seen
And yet so simplistic
Inexplicably beautiful
It shades itself
Without help
Making sure of its place in the world
With the helping hand of its creator
Bold, yet timid
Loud, yet soft
Crazy, yet calming
Never before have I seen such a thing
Embracing its infinite beauty
In my heart
