It is such a simple thing
Sitting and watching nature
A broken tree trunk becomes a pathway for small creatures
To reach great heights
It is such a simple thing
Sitting and watching life
Social interactions become an opportunity for individuals
to connect
It is such a simple thing
Standing
Moving
Caring
Helping
Sitting in silence listening to the heart-felt words of a friend
Or a stranger
We observe
We assimilate data
We measure it with our innate abilities
Experience
Learning
We can choose to transmit
Harm
Help
We can choose to
Take
Give
Wound
Heal
We can choose to reach out
Or quietly sit and observe
It is such a simple thing
