Touching the toe at arm’s length
I see what you see

misshapen bell-curve 
disproportional distribution
of misconceptions made 
as a result of faulty representations 
within the view point from an underground 
vantage point...

celestrial stars 
sparkles ever so brightly 
from afar they are 
~
stars ever trinkles
ever moving shining so
from a vantage point

Entering her royal courts at Brighten Manor....
Jovial the festive gathering jostling to find a place
Outside these walls as vantage their eyes; love's vista ?
Peasants of ancient old, and paupers; realigned, this gold....

perched in heights above
with a good vantage point

a feral cat howls 
in desperation
at the full moon

longing for its mate
gone missing in the night

Crescent moon frowning
It seems, from my vantage point
My head tilted up

Triggered emotions,
ran haywire,
in veins,
pulsing all along,
the perfume,
gently rubbed,
at vantage points,
was jigjagged,
in seesaw,
told people around,
that it was my sound,
that I had arrived,
totally and fully contrived....

With vantage view from the towering pagoda on Feilai Peak,
It is said that at cockcrow people can watch the sun rising.
Fear not that the floating clouds might block the view,
Because on the topmost storey the viewer is standing.

My world moves parallel to yours
Try as I might I cannot reach you
I may understand from a vantage point
But I’ll forever wonder
Try as you might you’ll never reach me
You may only imagine
But you’ll try to help anyway
And that may be enough...

Lends us vigilence.
 
The Camera can record perfect details.

Seek,eye,seek what needs to be seen.

Show us from your many vantage points

Help us our picture to complete.

The rolling footage is rewound and

we hope what we look for is found....

From age's vantage post
Romantic love found
Life's journey bound
A duet without a sound
Waves crashing on the coast
Eyes glancing, breath by breath
Without any thought of death
From one generation to another
We merge to discover
A moment of perfect symmetry...

She is afraid of suspect spaces,
with sparse starlight, ancient arches,
abyss-steps, swinging lanterns &

comforted by a moonlit garden,
an expansive sky of navy blue,
glitter-stars in an elocutionary’s box.

How strange it must seem
when each thing becomes clearer
seen from a distance…

Perhaps the eyes have more time
to see every point of view

one moment 
can change 
your perspective  
point of view 
vantage point 
this change can 
be very important 
it can cause the puzzle 
pieces of life 
to rearrange 
move around 
to create a new 
picture of the future 
that was never there
before this shift in 
view...

inadequate inaccuracy
never hit the mark 
no matter practice 
no matter efforts made
just a hair off the goal line 
just out of range of the target 
never able to get a clear shot 
something always got in the way 
of the vantage point from which 
the target should have been visible...

From our vantage point,
with bliss we anoint
the form we ensoul,
that we may feel whole.

In our body prism,
divine magnetism 
drawn in from vast space,
is purely God’s grace.

As the all there is,
radiating bliss,
form becomes God’s light
on a wingless flight.

preference change
vantage point moves
perspective shift 
experience alters 
years overlap
within this existence 
glass half full turns into 
glass half empty at times 
dependent upon mind 
set at the time of occurrence 
dependent upon the maturity 
level of the present state of being...

   Perched in a leafy tree
     sipping on poetry

   eyes trained on rolling hills
     toggling ‘tween windowsills 

   points of vantage as yet unimagined
     heretofore ne’er examined  

   Dare one say ‘the thrill is gone’
     ~ leave him listless lie on languid liquid lawns

gray areas  
exist  
within life 
never are there
clear cut 
black or white 
aspects 
all can be seen 
from a verity of
vantage points 
depending upon the
individuals 
state of mind at 
the time of 
experience 
live with an open mind 
live with an open heart 
live within the gray areas...

Our future he impacts
Social issues he just stacks

He gives educators the axe
Keeps piling the load on our backs
His stance on illegal immigrants lacks

He took a loose stance on tax
Mud slung, he seldom retracts
From his vantage point he acts

Lives in a mansion while we live in shacks
 Lots of promises, few facts...

cold-shoulder 
wind chill blowing 
negativity  
sweeping 
aside progression 
dismissing changes 
in over all 
prospective    
overriding    
strides upwards
on the climb to 
the top of the 
montion to gain 
a different vantage
point from which to 
view the landscape 
of this countryside 
filled with it's
hidden beauty...

you could never understand,
what we're denied 
from the vantage point
on which you stand,
your privilege

your money, power,
your cap and gown,
block this from view
when you look down,
from privilege

you cannot see, or you forget,
that all was built on
the blood and sweat 
of those that you now stand upon,
with privilege...
