Perspective In Everything
No angle comes without a perspective,
Every opinion given,
Has a perspective behind it,
Every shadow at the mercy of how the Sun perceives it,
And every act of kindness,
Showcases the perception of the giver.
Hope has a perspective all of its own,
Every painting is a reflection, of the perspective seen,
Through the eyes of the artist,
The adult and the child come to the party with different perspectives,
And those who stay in one spot too long,
Are in danger of losing all perspective,
As are those who remain on the outside looking in.
I think the best we can hope for is,
That somewhere, sometime, someone with perspective to spare,
Will need of what we have to offer,
And that perspective, will rub off on us.
