Honoring Beauty and Effort


How many things do we walk by in a day — 
Man made or natural — 
Without giving a thought to what it took 
To create them; 
For a tree to grow each tiny little branch; 
For an architect to design 
This circle of glass, this curving wall, 
 And for the brickmaker and the builder 
To create these gentle curves. 
In truth, there’s beauty and effort 
Everywhere we look, 
If only we’d make time to pay attention.
