perceptions

why i love the rain

i love the rain because the rain helps things to grow

things like trees

trees create oxygen in which i breathe

breath gives me the ability to live my life

a life that i love 

and that is why i love the rain

inside a bubble;

outside a bubble;

a bubble inside a bubble;

two bubbles merge into one

    the way an ant would see my hallway  

 through the eyes of a child

self perception

perceptions of beauty and perfection

  my nana smiling as she shares her outlook on life         

bubbles and cigarettes make a beautiful combination

especially when the bubbles burst to form a momentary puff of smoke

children see the world with inquisitive eyes.

a cardboard box becomes an endless afternoon of fun

a house; a new skirt, a vessel to slide down that hill 

as we get older alot of us lose this inquisition

we see a cardboard box as what we are told it is

a simple cardboard box no more no less

yet the man who developed the cardboard box 

first saw the cardboard and then envisioned a box

made of cardboard 

if you dont like something; change your perception-
your point of view:
 how would the world look if you were an ant?
and then again when you were a giraffe?
