Caterpillar Feet

All around me
the world is swirling with
color and beauty and sound
and discovery.
So many things to
write about,
to capture.
Why must I be
wrapped up
in such trivial things as
turning in homework,
finding a job,
cleaning the house,
when there is
SO MUCH
to be in awe of?
I suppose if all I did was
marvel at the wonders
of this world,
it would lose its
novelty
and I would be left with
nothing.

All the same.
I wish I had an entire day
to simply contemplate
caterpillar feet.
