Perspective
Location
Each day, I walk around
Looking up and looking down
Up at the sunset, with it's vivid colors
Down at the cement, With gum and painted numbers'
Sometimes, I look forward and behind
Forward at my future, always just ahead
Behind at my mistakes, proving I can be better
Is this what others see
As they walk around?
Do the faces of their friends
Look both 17 and 23?
Do they see pal trees,
And feel the quiet of a forest?
Or maybe read one word,
And hear a whole speech?
Perhaps they see what I don't,
With my head in the clouds.
They look at the sky,
And see ships sailing on air.
Turn the color of a chair
Into waves of light.
See a book,
And feel like sleeping.
The only way to know
Is something we all must do.
It's conversing, sharing, talking.
It's communicating your vision and being open to see other's.
It's called
Enlightenment.
