In Someone's Shoes
Put yourself in someone’s shoes
And gaze from that perspective.
Doing that may give you pause
Or cause to be reflective.
Judging others isn’t fair
Unless we’ve lived their lives.
What tactics we’d reject might be
How somebody survives.
It’s easy to condemn or praise
From knowledge one construes,
But we might sing a different tune
In someone else’s shoes.
