Do you ever feel like you're in a fantasy land?
Like the sky is just a bit too blue
The grass is too green
The clouds are too perfect
And the shadow of that lamp-post
Falls at the exact angle so that
Everything seems painted on, if only for a second?
Then you look around
See little imperfections upon the passersby
a wrinkle
a cough
a lop-sided grin
These little flaws make us real
Make us human.
And so the fantasy land flickers and fades
bringing you back to the beautiful reality.
You are here.
------
Sometimes the world seems so beautiful it can't be real, but it is! So take a minute to appreciate your surroundings.
