It takes a special person to see beauty in everyday life. Everyone glimpses it here and there, and some even take a moment to admire the spontaneous splendour; but to be able to find it in everything and be inspired by it is the gift of an artist. This ability can serve as a relief to the mundanity of an ordinary existence since even the smallest thing can spark one’s imagination. Paterson follows such a man who writes poetry in his spare time.
