Unseen

Ah! But to be unnoticed
But to be in the shadows of 
life's living day by day

To be the veiled spectator
of a father cutting grass and
a child in the sandbox-

To witness these normal things
normal people do on a normal day
is pure ecstasy to one who
glides past all like an unseen
wind.

A lonely sounding poem. Also a prayer to be noticed by one who is shy. Thanks for sharing.
