sweet
mozart
swirls around
numb commuters.
Random acts of joy
ignored as it implores
people to stop and enjoy.
Simple blessings, musical gifts
meant to lift silent spirits rushing,
looking for beauty, hidden in plain sight.

Thanks to alveria for the perfect illustration. Joshua Bell,a famous violinist did an experiment in a Washington subway where he disguised himself as a busker and played his 3.5 million dollar violin. The harried commuters basically ignored him, yet tickets for his concerts cost hundreds of dollars each and are usually sold out. We constantly search for contentment, but many do not see random acts of joy right in our paths.
