In the Sense of Seven Senses

From the eyes of the beholder You cannot hide reality; They reflect not the mirror About illusion and fantasy. From the ears of the listener Some secrets you cannot keep; Once they hear every bit of them, There are nights you cannot sleep. Into the nose of the sniffer Fragrant scent or foul smell may enter; It either carries freshness Or brings pollution to the air. In the tongue of the taster It's salty, sour, bitter and sweet; Whatever you do, say and write Lets him put his remarks in a sheet. In the touch of the holder It feels soft, hard, warm and cold; Sensing your happy or merry mood, He smiles, extending his hand to hold. In the heart of a bachelor Dwells a beat he cannot control; With no eyes, ears and other senses, Falling for one mate of his soul. Into the mind of the thinker Millions of ideas are assimilated; But wisdom from heaven above Must not be taken for granted. Five powers of receiving information, Plus two emotions of awareness; No one can deny the truth In the sense of seven senses.
