Our attention is drawn to little things,
Their effect often greater than one would think. Beauty in others the biggest draw,
The eyes,
A smile,
Watching unnoticed the expressions at play
In those simply there.
The father’s look,
A mother’s caress shown to a beloved child,
Small kindness given without thought,
An overflowing of a heart,
Perhaps surprised by the joy of love or beauty,
For just a moment freeing one from self-consciousness,
The relief of just being,
Capturing the moment in all of its depth and beauty,
Touching, often unknowing, the transcendent,
Its light showing through the beauty of creation
In all of its forms.
