Different Eyes


Different Eyes

They see:
Snowmen. Snowball fights. Sledging.

I see:
Fragility. Beauty. Uniqueness in every flake.

They see:
Something to climb. Goalposts.

I see:
Silent storytellers. Gentle guardian sway.

They see:
Puddles. Wet play. Boredom.

I see:
Life.

I feel the call of something I can’t explain.

They think I’m different.

They’re right.  

But I belong to something.

  1. This poem provokes me to ask, how do I see things. And what does that say about me? Enjoyed this thoughtful post here, and your two other poems as well.
