OPTICAL  ILLUSIONS

 

 What you see is what you get. 

Sometimes.
 
Optical illusions is what your get.
 
Sometimes.
 
Sometimes we need to take a second look.
 
Or a second listening….
 
What did you just say?
 
Oh, I didn’t hear you the first time.
 
Tell me more.
 
Show me more.
 
To pause …. great move.
 
To hold back judgment.
 
Easier said than done ….
 
To ask around the circle,
“What did you see?”
can be an eye opener –
that is if we open up our ears
and open up our minds
and find out what each of us
is seeing at first glance.
 
Ooooops. Don’t forget
there are second glances
and next month and next year glances.
 
Sometimes.
