Divergent

Divergent

I'm unique like a snowflake, unique and utterly different from you in

all aspects. Like the stands of the DNA intermingled together

to create a unique me.

walking this earth for eons and spanning the length and breadth of this

magical kingdom.I'm distinct. All the slender lines on the tip of my finger

will create a map, a unique map different from yours.

I may stem from you from the same genetic pool,

but I have different features and different habits.

A different me, a different you.

Churned out from the same concoction, if you really believe,

we all are parts of the same stardust, mixed and rolled

with varied proportions.

We are divergent but we are together as one.

I might be diverse in myriad ways but the truth is simple as a poem.
