Unique

Money and Power,
Both part of life.
But one special, Unique,
Created one’s Love.

Unique, a word despised by the ordinary.
A white peacock, a rainbow tree, it’s strange yet unique.
A protruding pimple, standing solitary,
It’s disgusted upon, even if it’s fascinating.
A shooting star in a starry night,
A Brobdingnagian mountain in a deep canyon.
The shimmering shores of Vaadhoo,
And the Pink Hillier of Western Australia.
They can be excruciated
They can be abhorred,
They can be maltreated,
But never obliterated.
