When I realized my greatness, at once I shrivelled and grew little;
As clouds shrivel when they realize the wonders of their cargoes,
Carrying the fates of flowers and rainbows and the souls of little children.
The moment I realized how great I was, I was great no longer.
From the depth of earth and ocean, through the eyes of flowers and spray,
I gazed at the blue skies across which I had sailed in crimson splendor;
And slowly and unseen I climbed up the stairways of the sun-rays,
And slowly and unseen I lifted myself on the wings of the wind ..
And I rose from my littleness that was the fulfilment of my greatness!
