You See Not What I See

You see ugly pieces of wood. I see a beautiful tree.
You see a cruel way of punishment. I see a way I am not fit to die.
You see a human invention. I see Devine intervention
You see another piece of art. I see a new reason for art, life.
You see just a thing. I see something I would die for
You see something that would give you splinters if you take it up. I see something that would give you eternal life if you take it up.
You see just a piece of junk. I see the only way that I may see God
I see away that man can be forgiven of his sins.
I see God’s perfect plan.

I see the cross
