Eyes by Edgar A. Guest
Eyes are different, some can see Leaf and bud on many a tree. Some discover, here and there, Tiny little lines of care Stamped on faces white and wan others never look upon.
Some, whatever they behold, Merely see its cost in gold. Theirs are advantageous eyes, Shrewd, and sharp, and cold, and wise, Seeing only things which may Serve their own concerns some day.
Some have eyes which sweep about Finding little follies out. They can readily detect Clothes which are not quite correct, But they never seem to find Rich endowments of the mind.
From the self-same point of view Some see more than others do; What is beautiful to one Others never look upon; And I wonder can it be Life is merely what we see.
