Eyes



The frog saw a man who had once been a wealthy business man,

And in the man’s eyes, he saw money

Off of the money did sunlight reflect and shine in a young boy's eyes,

He picked up the small coin, and stuffed it in his pocket,

The coin reappeared and was exchanged for a small chocolate bar at a candy shop.

The chocolate bar was divided into four, and a young girl saw kindness in it,

The warmth radiated onto her mother, who raised an infant without a father,

The woman baked a pie in an oven, which ended up in old, wrinkly hands,

At midnight, a thief broke in and stole the pie away,

Away, he ran with it, and tripped on a stone,

The pie was flung on the ground, and was soon a mountain of coal,

An ant picked up a generous piece and continued its long journey back home,

Travelling near the urban area, tragedy fell upon the ant,

It was stepped on by a successful man who was happy with life,

In his hand, he held a cage with a frog, who had seen many things.
