Blind by Choice

Do we actually pay attention to the world around us or just flow through life?

Have you even looked about the world,
To ponder why it renews,
Have you even looked upon the sky,
To wonder why it's blue,
Ran your finger across the grass,
To ponder why it grows,
Looked inside yourself,
And wondered what you trully know?

Have you ever peered out at the world,
At all humanity,
Gazed about the universe,
At all there is to see,
From the smallest ant,
To those that fly,
Have you ever stopped to ponder,
The truth of why we are?
Have you ever stopped to wonder?
