Seeing Clearly
By Don Iannone
What we see
...when we really look
...is more beautiful
...than when we use our eyes
...to simply judge.
What we see
...when we open our heart
...to ordinary things
...is better than
...the most magnificent sunset
...anywhere.
Open your heart and eyes
...and clearly see!

Abandoned and empty, they are filled to the brim.

Great Poem too, reminds me of when I was just learning to see as an Artist, how magnificent it was, don't let it become lost, Paint with your eyes.

Great treasure from your Journey.

Gymnastics of thought/mind from my side.

Most obivious is most obscure.
Obvious is un-attended,un-noticed,happens!
Obscure is respected ,praised!!
