Through the Eyes of Another

Through my eyes I see a student A student with big dreams Big dreams to make his family proud His family proud because they gave him opportunity Gave him opportunity to be who ever he wants to be I see a student Through my eyes I see a mother A mother who works all day Works all day and still runs a house Runs a house with love and care Love and care she raises her children I see a mother Through my eyes I see a father A father who works hard Who works hard to support his family Support his family to set the example Set the example for his children I see a father Through my eyes I see a teacher A teacher who helps students learn Helps students learn the stepping stones in life Stepping stones in life to lead them on their way On their way to be whomever they want to become I see a teacher Through my eyes I see a solider A solider who’s job is to keep us safe Keep us safe from the dangers in our community In our community they are a symbol A symbol of protection and leadership I see a solider Through my eyes I see a doctor A doctor who cares for patients Cares for patients with a smile With a smile even though they face so much sickness So much sickness they try to heal I see a doctor Through the eyes of another I wonder what they see Do they see someone who cares Someone who leads with example Someone who teaches to think outside the box Someone who protects those around them Through the eyes of another I hope they see someone they can look up to
