Graceful…

A word with more than one meaning
a girl in a black dress, pearls around her neck
ogling the jewellery at Tiffany’s
or hanging about, waiting for the one she loves
movement is a soft flow of limbs, straight back

Or maybe it’s a princess raised from the common folk
spending her time between spotlight and candlelight

Or the nun who changed the lives of a few directly,
yet so many indirectly

What is graceful?
Is it being full of grace?
Then what is grace?

It is freedom, it is love unconditional
it is life, it is powerful
it is flowing

It is mighty like the ocean’s tide
Persistent
Unwavering
You can’t run from it,
though it may be hard to find if you look in the wrong places

But it’s there.

Waiting.

It will change you.
It will change how you see the things around you.
