Our Senses And The World

Through sight, we see the world around us Colors, shapes, and forms that inspire The beauty of nature and the human touch A kaleidoscope of imagery that never tires

With hearing, we tune into the sounds we hear Rhythmic beats and melodies that we hold dear The soothing lullaby that sings us to sleep Or the thunderous roar of a lion on the leap

Taste is a sensation that we relish and savor The bitterness of coffee and the sweetness of flavor A symphony of spice that tantalizes our tongues And the comfort of a hot meal when the day is done

Through touch, we feel the world at our fingertips The softness of silk and the roughness of bricks A gentle caress or a firm handshake The warmth of a hug or the chill of a lake

Our sense of smell can transport us to another place The scent of a rose or the smell of a freshly mown lawn The aroma of a meal that we can almost taste Or the salty ocean air that leaves us enthralled

Each of the senses is a gift that we are given A doorway to the world that we are living So let us cherish each sensation with delight For it is through these senses that we experience life.
