It doesn't have to be the vast sky,
it doesn't have to be the fathomless earth.
It could be a small patch,
or shade under a tree.
Listen,
just pay attention.
It was never a contest to be won,
nor a mountain to be climbed.
Just one word,
nothing elaborate.
A doorway,
towards success.
Gratitude is all I have,
and then, silence.
For another voice to speak.
