A Toast To Feeling Alive

See
I look up at the endless azure
Full of curiosity
What is it hiding
In the Hubble Bubble?

Touch
A cold embrace makes
Shots of dopamine
Send chills down my spine
And a stupidly sappy smile

Hear
Birds chirp blissfully
(Oh, how I long for such freedom)
The wind whispers, the leaves rustle
The icy streams sing sweetly

Taste
"The chai's a little off today.."
(Well I'd like to see you try)
A flavourful biscuit accompanies
Along with the savoury peanuts

Smell
Food has a distinct aroma
It's a toddler's ambrosia
The raindrops merge with the earth
The petrichor brings back memories

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
