5 Senses

sight

5-6-6

lake ontario
as the warm orange sun
sets on a clear evening

smell

6-2-6

fresh hazelnut coffee
brewing 
late, one autumn morning

touch

4-10-3

soft fingertips
gently massaging the bottom of your
naked foot

hearing

7-2-7

the length of a sharp knife blade
being
dragged slowly down a chalk board

taste

9-2-3

a leaf of maple sugar candy
melting
on your tongue

I am enjoying reading the very diverse poetry here this morning in my Soupland. Words pouring onto paper from poets souls. What a joy to be able to sit and read such wonderful poetry for awhile today. Have a very good day Andrew. Love, Carol
