Why is the sky blue
Why is grass green
Why is the ocean blue
Why is the ocean deep
Do animals ever dream?
Why can we dream?
Are we considered the sea?
We are deep
Like the sea, we are not seen
Noticed sometimes
Noticed is rare
Looking up at the sky
Looking down at the grass
Each cloud and each blade
Comes to terms with that it’s not seen
To be considered great
Attributes must be seen
A dolphin’s intelligence
A whale’s size
A dog’s obedience
Or a Bird in the sky
Most unseen
Most never heard
But yet again that’s how it works
Some in the spotlight
Some working behind the spotlight
Some have fame and some do not
The gears turn without being noticed
But without gears how would time be noticed
Until the battery stops
The clock runs how it should
Silent
Efficient
And perfect for the job it holds still
…
Battery dead
The watch could be discarded
Looking ahead to who may have the finest
