Colophon ... Trace

Today's word is "colophon" ... KOL-uh-fon ... a publisher's or printer's distinctive emblem, used as an identifying device on its books and other works. (Dictionary.com)

Trace
From the moment we arrive,
     we are unique,
All differentiated, yet barring,
     like a colophon, our maker's mark.
We are like him, enlightened spirits,
     made of energy and the dust of stars;
          designed to shine.
Until we take ourselves seriously,
     as seriously as our creator,
          we will not see ourselves
               as we are seen.
