Poems About Perceptions 2
A More Interesting View
Knights with swords, princes in castles
Towers and kingdoms, servants and vassals.
Dragons and fairies play in the sky
Unicorns and trolls wandering by.
You see it different and yet the same,
Similar things with different names.
A solider at war fights for his home
A rich CEO’s son, his heir to the throne.
Sky scrapers and cites spring from the ground
Fast food servers and janitors seem to abound.
Jets and kites dot the sky
Cars and motor bikes puttering by.
You see the same world that I see
It just looks more interesting to me.
