You said you couldn't see
The wood for the trees,
The branches for the leaves,
The wind for the breeze,
The sand for the sea.
The desert for the sand,
The ocean for the land,
The beach for the strand,
The hills for the uplands.
The clouds for the rain,
The grass for the plain,
The sugar for the cane,
The wheat for the grain.
You said you couldn't see,
Until you
Opened
Your
Eyes.
And the trees lived
And the wind-songs played,
And the sand blew
And the oceans sprayed.
And the hills stood tall
And the clouds gathered grey,
And the grass ever grew
And the wheat constantly swayed.
You said you couldn't see.
But you could.
You only
Had to
Open
Your
Eyes.
