Sometimes when you sit on a
bench like a rock with eyes,
you'll notice everything - every
single detail that makes a thing what it is.
You will be able to observe the way
trees sway their branches,
The sound of rustling leaves,
How stinging the sun feels on your skin,
And perhaps the slow changing of the
leaves' colors (if you've sat still for a week).
Early morning, you can watch from your bed
the way the shadows move and travel
to disappear fully, completely
replaced by the light of the sun.
In the late afternoon, you can watch the
sky bleed from the hues of blue to red, to a dark.
If you sit long enough, you'll notice certain changes
in everything and everyone around you -
How a person seems to be different from before.
The soft and subtle changes in their voice,
The uniqueness of their actions,
How, the way they act seem to be
totally opposite from before.
How, one person becomes old-er one day.
