          I found my Strength and Courage
         
        
          Contained within a vase
         
        
          Such a thing I'd never found
         
        
          in so strange a place
         
        
          Honesty & Tranquility within this
          vase
         
        
          were also kept
         
        
          Though cracked and thought imperfect
         
        
          It's True Strength just merely slept
         
        
          No flowers ever shone so bright
         
        
          or emitted such a Heavenly scent
         
        
          But once awakened from this vase
         
        
          True Strength to me was lent
         
        
          It held me up and comforted me
         
        
          when I fell or too deeply wept
         
        
          And with Love's True Guidance
         
        
          my heart became adept
         
        
          ...to Courage fraught with honor
         
        
          and a Truth not known before
         
        
          ...to Piety and Beauty
         
        
          and, of course, Strength felt to the
          core
         
        
          My vase, it may be fragile
         
        
          But Pure Beauty it does shine
         
        
          Perfection can be simplistic
         
        
          But Fragility, something more Divine
