Things we see or the things we miss seeing

What are those that hold our attention

Perhaps those that  personally affect our being

Or more precisely that we see more often

But there are those staring right in our face

Spied along the pathways at eye level

Still not readily ‘sighted’ and somewhat  displaced

Perhaps not stunningly pretty to be ogled

Only when a puddle is side-stepped on the pavement

Was it realized it being there as an obstacle to avoid

No one to do a Raleigh cape laying event

But reacted as a safety measure lest a slip occurred

An oily puddle can be fascinating to sketch

Needs finesse in separating the bubbly nature

An artist’s brush can depict easily a muddy patch

But not river streams or lake water features

Simple things in life

Have to be seen as a bother

To be realized

Or sorely missed as before
