If we stare long enough
this is what we see:
a fox in a field, a butterfly,
a glorious, working bee.
If we stare long enough
the nature comes to us;
a ladybird, a blue tit
a wild rabbit, a thrush.
If we stare long enough
and open our eyes to see,
a beautiful world in front of us;
a wood, a cloud, a tree.
If we stare long enough
and enjoy this world for free
we won’t regret admiring it
and take time to really see.
