painting of today

paint it into the picture
so only those who really
focus will see
not hiding it just small
part of a whole lot more
so finer details might get lost
funny though the things that
get noticed versus those
that stay hidden
until a second or third look
taken up close then step back
too many times not enough
attention paid or too much
seldom but it happens
to be getting dark
because of the clouds 

and rain otherwise
light would not be so faded
like the paint drying
today's painting make sure
to look close up
then take a step back
take it all in
as you simply breathe...
