Unidentified Lying Object

Unidentified Lying Object
By Larry Linville

It was early morning and dew was all around
something unusual was lying on the ground
I tried to focus in on just what it could be
From every vantage point it seemed to puzzle me

It had a strange color and funny little blobs
Nothing I remembered in any other jobs
One more inspection let me know I need not fear
It was a dew soaked leaf that I saw lying here

Life sends us people whose lives we can’t recognize
They might even cause fear to my unfocused eyes
It’s when I keep looking and seeing all their sides
That I get to visit them where their soul resides

Remember most people are not like they first look
We need to treat them like the way we read a book
Then such a person who once was very frightful
Will soon become a friend that is so delightful
