THINGS I HAVE SEEN
Born with these eyes that for a lifetime have seen,
Wonderful pictures of a world that seem like a dream.
Things I have seen are those of beauty and life combined,
Things I have seen are of darkness and quite horrible things.
Things I have seen should not have been there to ever see,
Not from eyes of the Innocent child who hasn’t had time to dream.
Things I have seen are of hope, love, and courageous things,
Things I have seen are of views from so many different ways.
The things I have seen of mystery and unusual scenery,
A lifetime that makes up a movie of all that I am to be.
