What must I do? For the grass to grow; The sun to shine; The wind to blow; What must I do? To have the sky above; The ground beneath my feet; To breathe my next breath; Cause my heart to beat; What must I do? For Spring to arrive; To see; For a thought to form? Left, Right, All around the sky stretches out before me. With every step it is there, limitless. Try as I may, I cannot grasp it. But, without any effort at all... For as long as I am... I have it. |

Beautiful! Yes, as you imply, all you have to do (as Steven said in reply to one of my poems) is to look! - Owl |

Simple, but profound. Really enjoyed this one! The soul would have no rainbows, had the eyes no tears. |
