Poetry #2 - Stop and Look Around

Take a deep breath and open your eyes,

Happiness doesn't always have to come with a price,

It comes in every color, every comfort, every sound --

If you just stop and look around.


In a sea of faces, amongst the busiest streets

Right where reality and illusion meets,

Slow down and relax a bit,

And see the things that you might have missed.


Stress isn't always necessary,

Happiness isn't that hard to find.

When it's all too much for you to carry --

Step back and unload, just chill and unwind.


Forgive and forget, time is of the essence

You only live once, so loosen up and let go

Stop and listen -- sometimes all it takes is patience,

Just look around you and enjoy the show.
