BEAUTY

Everything was as it was before hand, but he had never realized how truly beautiful it all was. He had been gone for what seemed like years when it really was only a matter of days. The trees were now bloomed and spring colors splashed from the thousands of flowers. Birds were out and chirping their different songs and the sun never seemed brighter. It felt like everything was just holding its breath, not wanting to disturb the beauty and peace that was felt. As he looked around at the many people walking past a sad realization passed over him; they were not paying attention. Sure, they were outside enjoying the sun but they weren't enjoying the beauty that was clearly around them. This newly found beauty that he wanted to just sing and stare at. This newly found beauty that captured him, keeping him in a kind of trance that he hoped to never get out of.
