The Six Senses

Sight...as eyes embrace A thousand words resonate With each photograph they take Taste...seed soil ,and harvest DNA Remeberence of past flavors saturate Intuition...the mind grasp hidden anger, joys and fears Touch... As gentle hands embrace Each takes the pulse of grace Smell...Scent memory is retained as distance subtles fragrance Lover's pheremones , our unburied dead ... and war's bloodshed Hearing...As observant ears embrace the words of joy, fear and all emotions resonate As age deafens , unheard , is the sound of music and children's words As death silences , the meaning of sound ends As our first born's begins
