snow globe

Peaceful, calm
Exquisite to behold
But utterly useless on this shelf
Safe, settled,
dead
Admiring glances won't do
I was meant for so much more
I want to be more, all
But I can do nothing on my own
please
Uproot me from my complacency
Unleash my dormant potential
Unnerve me gently, wildly, lovingly
Unsettle my world till I am
glistening with hope
dazzling with peace
churning with life
Only then will my true beauty be revealed
That at last all may behold
The timeless serenity that swirls within me
when I am in Your hands
