A Magnificent Reflection

She had never seen anything so magnificent in her life.
She saw strength lying beneath the olive complexion of skin.
Strength that propelled an individual to keep hacking at their day.
To keep improving themselves further and advancing to their goals.
She saw resilience in the form of rich brown, doe-shaped eyes.
Although the eyes have witnessed many struggles,
Seen complicated factors that stacked higher than the good in situations, 
The pair of eyes would always continue to look skyward, and never look back down until the pair of feet attached to the moving body, was on steadier terrain. 
She saw persistence in those pair of moving legs,
Those very legs have trekked up steep, rocky mountains that posed challenge and difficulty to the individual’s mind. 
But those capable legs have also overcome the treacherous terrain and continued idly with one foot in front of the other. 
They have wandered on lost trails and arrived at momentous destinations.

She glanced back up from those feet that were attached to her limbs,
And back into the doe-shaped eyes that beheld rich brown in the pupils, 
And saw the olive complexion of her skin peppered with freckles on her cheeks.
She was looking at a reflection of herself in the mirror. 
And what a magnificent sight it was.
