I rest upon this hill to meditate
to clear my mind of earthly happenings
the sun and moon and stars I contemplate
and lose myself for hours imagining
that somehow I escape this atmosphere
and leave this mediocracy behind
There's nothing left to spark my interest here
It strikes me as mundane and unrefined
but when an interruption ceased my muse
a solitary daisy caught my eye
that it had not been seen, there's no excuse
its simple beauty no one could deny
While dreaming of a place light years away
I've missed the joy of living day to day.

This is a great piece
I see it everyday and it is sad so many overlook what could make their days special so plcaed for their eyes only yet so neglected to take part and yet they wonder why they feel so lost so alone whe the answer is right there about and outside their very home
