Pay Attention


When he said
"time sure flys when you're not paying attention"
it rang like a bell
and I thought...

That's what artists do:
we are here to pay attention,
to capture the beauty that surrounds us
to sing of our joys and sufferings
and lift the heads and hearts and minds
of those too hurried to notice
all they are missing.
