Some may say this poem is about the blind leading the blind, what do you think?

Question

That star atop tall tree over there?
Yeah, it shines for you and me, see? 
Don't look away, stop that now! 
You are as worthy as me.
Its light falls upon each of us
equally
while we walk along in its path.
What?  You aren't into stars?
Okay, look at that other tree!
You got it, an angel, watching over
us always. Is that more your thing?
Ah, I can see in your eyes!
They smile now with imaginings.
Go ahead then and make your wish
or offer her up a prayer,
she'll carry it high in her wings.
That star we saw will light her way,
she'll take it to someone who cares.

Be she angel or shining star

Safe for all who walk on it

Just because one is blind doesn't mean that he cannot see the truth. The fact that he lives in darkness doesn't mean that he cannot enlighten.

It is about finding one's spiritual path.
