Imagine

If we could.....

Taste the beauty of butterfly wings
   and buttercups blooming..

Smell a hot orange sun setting
   and fluffy white clouds floating..

See what raindrops see falling
    and the perfume inside a rose..

Hear the calmness of a clear blue sky
    and the power of a snow peaked mountain..

Touch the velvety blackness of midnight
    and a mighty lightning bolt..

Imagine..what a different world this would be.......

It seems as though, even at our peak, we can't fully experience the world around us. Perhaps someday! You did an excellent job at capturing all five sense... it's fun to imagine and good for the soul :)
