Landmarks and Landscapes

“Can you hear me? I’m talking to you. Across the water, across the deep blue ocean, under  the open sky…”- Jason Mraz

Landmarks.
Empire State, Central Park.
The British Parliament, Thames River.
Sydney Opera House.
Christ the Redeemer.

Landscapes.
The ocean, the beach.
The river, the trees.

You can see them with your eyes opened
But those who get it with theirs closed
Can see beyond.

Beyond the earth, beyond the air.
They can see through walls, by memory, with their hearts.
They can be artistic
Or autistic.

But their hands reproduce much more than you can see.
They draw what you feel.

Beyond.

Beyond landmarks and landscapes.
