POEM: Just Like You

A crop waiting to be harvested
A bomb waiting to explode
A magnet waiting to attract
A cloud waiting to fall
A voice waiting to be heard
A mirror waiting to be seen
A baby waiting for delivery
Is just like you waiting to manifest

A fan rolling on the ceiling
A food cooking in the pot
A bird flying in the sky
A fish swimming in the river
A sound playing on the piano
An actor acting on stage
A needle passing through the cloth
Is just like you walking in destiny
