you are great, not
because you command
mighty armies, but
because you created
ants to show us how
to work together with others.
you are great, not
because you shaped
towering mountains which
kiss the clouds in the sky, but
because of those tiny seeds
children can plant in paper cups
and watch the miracle of them
growing into gentle plants.
you are great, not
because you are the
smartest in any room,
any group, any conversation
but because you were wise
enough to become one of us
so we might know you
whenever we see another person.
