Change Your View

In twilight's gentle, hushed embrace, I muse,

Upon a truth, profound, yet oft confused,

"When you change the way you look at things,"

A whisper in the breeze, a truth that sings.

 

In quiet moments, by the fire's warm glow,

I ponder on this wisdom, let it grow,

For as I turn my gaze to yonder skies,

The very stars seem different in my eyes.

 

Once, they were distant, cold, and far apart,

But now, they're dreams, each one a work of art,

In shifting thoughts, a new perspective is born,

The heavens, once remote, now feel adorned.

 

When change befalls the lens through which we see,

The world transforms, a wondrous tapestry,

No longer mere, mundane, or commonplace,

But filled with grace, a dance of time and space.

 

The meadows bloom with colours yet unseen,

Each blade of grass, a world, a living dream,

The river's flow, a symphony of grace,

In every ripple, secrets interlace.

 

"When you change the way you look at things,"

A truth profound, in whispered wisdom, sings,

For in the alchemy of mind and sight,

The ordinary turns to pure delight.

 

So, let us not be prisoners of the past,

But with new eyes, this world anew we'll cast,

And as we do, the universe may range,

To show us beauty, in the subtle change.
