My eyes have seen so many things,
Knowing they don't have to be!
A man can change anything!
A forest starts with just one tree!

what a wonderful up lifting stanza. It's to bad many never plant that one tree or that one good thought. It's plain to see by the sad poems on here how hope has died for many and all that is left is a burnt forest. If every one would read your poems daily they would find the hope and the will and the courage to change.

My eyes have seen so many things,
OF DARKNESS, AND OF LIGHT,
From the troubles caused, by eyes closed,
To the blinding reality of sight!

My eyes have seen so many things,
Knowing they don't have to be!
A man can change anything!
A forest starts with just one tree!

We have to open our eyes in order to see the things that need to be changed and start with one thing at a time. Sometimes the reality of what we see is hard to accept, but we must see in order to make the changes.
