Peacock (for 5.17.2013)

Far to many love the peacock. 

True if you were to place a sparrow beside a peacock, eyes would indeed be drawn towards the peacock. For how can you ignore those magnificent hues of blue? That design staring into your soul? 

But I still prefer the sparrow. 

Appearing drab at first, it’s fine brown feathers have many hues. Each one, it’s own design.

I could watch a sparrow for hours. I adore it’s unassuming beauty. 

The world says “You are plain. You should want to be a peacock.”

But in my eyes, you are so much more than a peacock.
