An orchid is peaceful and perfect like glass
or a mirror
because it is delicate and strong
and when I look in a mirror
I see myself
and I am also
delicate and strong.

As the expression goes “out of the mouths of babes.” If only more of our children grew up so centered and able to share their beauty!
