Ok, we have all done it..stuck to our guns in a row, refusing to see that sometimes, we could even be fighting on the same side....It is all down to a question of a Point of View......
'Ah, but is your blue..my blue...?'
He looked at me, vague...
A puzzled expression,
on his face, now displayed..
'What?' He has asked, 'Has this got to do,
with anything relevant, this odd talk of Blue?'
'But this is the point', I said, trying to make,
'Bear with me and see, where this question, I take'.
'We don't always see things, the way they are shown.
You have your perceptions, and they are your own.
But just wait a minute, all I'm asking of you,
let's find if we see things, from a shared point of view.
Your shade of blue could be different from mine...
but they are just shades, the basic blue is still fine...'
'So this row we are having, is just the same...
but different viewpoints, so there's no one to blame...
I'd rather not argue, so let us admit..
that the shades we are talking, will somehow still fit...'
He smiled at me slowly, said 'I now know what you mean,
Now, talking of Colours...How do you feel about Green?'
