Day after day
We miss it
We walk right pasted
Never igknowlaging it
Not sparing it one glance
It's all around us
Yet we never see it
What is it?
What do we ignore?
The world
That is what we miss
We over look it
Take it for granted
Almost everyday
We don't take the time
To smell the flowers
Bask in the sun
Watch the sun rise or set
Hear the twittering of nature
We are too busy
We have places to go
And people to see
We have emails to check
And statuses to update
We are so involved
In ourselves
Our schedules
Our places to go
And our people to see
Not only do we look over nature
We also neglect our fellow man
We see them everywhere
But we don't notice them
We walk right pasted each other
Not even giving a second's look
We all live on the same planet
The same earth supports us all
Yet we don't see it
We don't see the world around us
We ignore it
We don't see the people around us
We over look them
My original question was going to be
"Can you see it?"
But I think
"Will you see it?"
Is a better question
We all CAN see it
But WILL we?
I take time
Everyday
To just look
Look at the world
That I live in
That I've grown in
I take time
Just to see what
And sometimes who
Is around me
So I ask again
For the very last time
I want you to think
Will you see it?
