FIVE 17-SYLLABLE SEE-IT POEMS
1
Left or right?
Bright star or empty palm?
Behind your back a change of hands.
2
Thomas wasn’t there to see it.
He needed proof.
Then faith gave new eyes.
3
What the blind man sees
with wisdom, those with sight
cannot identify.
4
In placid waters
your reflection stares back at you.
Which face is true?
5
The child sees a herd of stallions
stampede across the sky.
We see only jumbled clouds.
