One of a Kind
~~~
I am but a link in a chain
No stronger than the next
I am but a star in night sky
No brighter than the rest
~~~
I am but a grain of sand
Alone, I am not the shore
I am but a cloud in the sky
Just one of so many more
~~~
I am but a leaf on the flower
That helps the beauty show
I am but a tree in the forest
Where all the others grow
~~~
I am but a fish in the sea
Strongest within the school
I am but a drop in the bucket
Not why the bucket is full
~~~
I am but a second in infinity
Many before and many behind
Yet, how I live my life should be
As if I am one of a kind
~~~

This is an absolutely beautiful poem. I love the compassion and sense of comradely combined with reaching your fullest potential. Be kind and the world will be kind to you- a sentiment many of us forget or choose to selfishly ignore today.
Thank you for your generous words and your interest!
