Vicariously

My every childhood dream is simply there for you.
Mine were simple basics & for you they’re givens true.

What you know to be the norm was not just so for me.
I witness your journey & rewrite bad history.

In gratitude, I replay childhood; through your new eyes.
You’ve been a hard reboot for me…also nice surprise.

A welcome shock to see good nature & good nurture.
For either, I’ve fought the dark…just a lonely searcher.

These concepts weren’t new to me, just a foreign land.
I’m honored to have walked upon your soil, hand in hand.

The time for undiscovered countries will, soon, be yours.
May perspective light your way to advantage lined shores.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
