You- What Do They Perceive Poem by Carolyn Ford Witt

- * YOU- WHAT DO THEY PERCEIVE * -

You ask what people think of you,
What of you-they perceive.
What do you wear-What do you say?
The masses to deceive.

Have you ever looked inside yourself,
To know just who you are?
A King-a queen-a dancer-
millionaire or Russian Czar.

No matter if you're rich or poor
You have to reach inside,
To make your personality something
You don't have to hide.

It doesn't matter what you wear
If you are neat and clean.
Just comb your hair-put on a smile
And show your self-esteem.

For if you think well of yourself,
Your shoulders back, your head up high;
You show the greatness you now have,
To just reach up and grab the sky.
