Point of View

Point of View
copyright 2002 Patricia M. Shannon

There were two men from the same village,
the truest friends you've ever known.
They were blood-brothers when they were children,
They married sisters when they were grown.

(chorus)
They were the best of friends, the best of friends,
brothers of the heart,
They were the best of friends, the best of friends,
nothing ever could tear them apart.

One day the Trickster bet the village,
he could get these friends into a fight;
"Oh, no," said the village,
"We know you can't be right."

(chorus)

Tricks made a coat of different colors,
walked between them so they could view;
"What a lovely red.", said one friend,
said the other : "No, it is blue."

They started shouting at each other
over which one saw it true,
Trickster turned around and showed them
"It's all in your point of view."

(chorus)
They were the best of friends, the best of friends,
brothers of the heart,
They were the best of friends, the best of friends,
they thought nothing could tear them apart.

I'm not an excellent singer, but here is a video if you want to hear the song.

The structure of this blog



I have several blog posts that are at the top of my blog for extended periods of time, because I believe they are of continuing usefulness. So when you look at my blog, the fact that the first few are the same doesn't mean I haven't updated the blog recently.
