A Speck of Dust (-Nynaeve) #57

A Speck of Dust (Achievement #57 = 2 points)

Dust I am, a mere speck,

Could be from rock or smoke,

Or dead plants and salt fleck

Or from the mug you broke.

I am carried in air,

Wafted about by breeze,

You see me everywhere,

And often make you sneeze.

You think of me as dirt,

And prefer I were gone,

I agree I do hurt,

Yet there is good I've done.

I turn rain gentle sprays,

As loess make the soil lush,

I scatter the sun rays,

And sunset sky to blush.

I'm centre of the pearl,

The heart of snowflake,

In golden light I twirl,

When snow globes you shake.

I know I am dirty,

Also cause quite some harm,

Can't deny I'm pretty

And have little bit charm.
