White Page

By LVA

a white page means nothing

until you put words on it

even then, it means nothing

some people might apply meaning to the words

they read on the page

they might make meaning of the letters strung together

like glittering stars strung across a sky

like outdoor lights strung across an outdoor patio with a grill and a kiddie pool

like a happy birthday sign strung from the left side of a door to the right in front of an entryway

they might make meaning of those letters on the page

like we make meaning from most everything we see

and still, everything is a white page

it means nothing

until we give it meaning

we decide what glittering stars mean to us

or outdoor lights, a patio, grill, and kiddie pool

or a happy birthday sign in the entryway

we give it meaning

and so it becomes significant

to us

and that’s something

just like this white page with some letters strung together
