a poem to ponder

How Big Is Your Splash?

Now as I look inward,
I find that by comparison,
I haven't jumped as high
Or made as large a splash
As others that I know.

I'm told,
There is no face or mind
Like mine.
I AM ONE OF A KIND.

This makes me wonder
What another person
With  the same frame,
Background, and foibles,
Would have done with it.

-Elmer Adrian, age 90
