Ode to It

Ode to it
Ode to it's intelligence 
Praise it's existence
Perfect it is 
Flaws are its perfection

Bends but never breaks 
Whispers answers in silence 
Deeply felt, still unseen

It carries a heavy weight 
Standing on its own
Remembering without bitterness
It is all and nevertheless
It asks for nothing
