ode to glitter

I discovered you as a child.

I'd glue you to pieces of

construction paper;

you made my drawings

beautiful.

As the years went by,

I discovered that you

can do so much more.

Nail polish, eye shadow,

lip gloss...

you enhance all these things.

You add sparkle and fun

to my clothing and accessories,

asking nothing in return.

The world owes you, Glitter.

Allow me to lighten the debt.
