The poet’s eyes (refrain)

Sometimes I think 

that I look too hard

for what is there,

and see things that

I assume others 

do not see.

 

But humility has taught

me never to think that 

I know much of 

anything at all, 

for like other poets

greater than me, I

see what I see and

I see because others

have seen before.
