This is wonderful! Such a novel approach to this topic. Some of your astute observations are sadly too true, for eg, the arrogant boy. I laughed (just a little) at the reactions of the philosopher and politician. I agree that our life's experiences create the framework for most of our perceptions. Great job and good luck!

This is a very well written poem you have penned for the In The Eye of the Beholder contest. You viewed this by different people in life and what they saw and felt. Best wishes in the contest. Teri

And when will we see each other? The hungry boy might see something in the homeless boy that he does n-t see in himself. The homeless boy might see something in the physically challenged boy that he can-t feel for himself, and the physically challenged boy might see something in the artist that he can-t put in words....

Thanks for this inspiring poem.

    Thank you for the "Excellent" review and the very insightful comments. Wouldn't it be nice if we all could focus are perceptions with a touch of understanding and empathy.

We are all engineered to filter life through our experiences, wants, needs, and desires. This poem outlines how each person had their own 'take' on things. Of course, the viewpoints were different, but all of them were correct. Thanks for a thought-provoking poem.

This is a cleaver and nicely written poem. I like how you show how different personalities view the same picture. It should do well in the contest. Good luck/

Very well written and so elegantly composed. Definitely a thought provoking piece. Indeed, we all do view, not just art, but life through different eyes. This comes through as a powerful message in your writing. Thankyou.
