Senses

The Universe..
In which we live
Is entirely dominated by divine senses..
Our divine senses allows the reality..
In which we live ..

Trough our senses we perceive..
Objectively we have five senses..
Subjectively we have much more..

Magnificent Universe..
Life..
Love and fear
Experience..
To see
To hear..
To touch..

Imagine a Universe..
Without our divine senses
A reality in which is silenced..
In which is never seen
In which is not fragrant
In which is not felt
A reality in which can never be touched..
Close your eyes..
Continue to imagine..
You cannot..
You cannot fandom..
A reality without divine senses..
You would cease to exist..

All lovely creatures in existence..
Every living thing..
Plants..
Animals..
Insects..
Perceive through their own senses
Of which are different..
Different in comparison to humans..


A honeybee buzzing along it's merry way..
Will smell and taste sweet nectar in a flower
How does a honeybee perceive us?
How about any animal?
Or trees and plants?
Their perception of us is quite different..

Quite fascinating it is..


Distortions can apply ..
Determining distortions is impossible..
Because you see..
You always believe..
In what you perceive..

Truth is your very own..
Truth is personal..
No truth is the same..

Gershon Wolf April 27, 2018 at 1:33 AM Just want to thank you for introducing me to the 'Divine Sense' and so much more in this wonderful poem. I had always stopped at "Intuition/6th sense/ESP." Thanks to you I see clearly that I was like unto those who were convinced that the world is flat. Gratefully yours, :) gw Robertina B. April 27, 2018 at 3:10 PM As always thank you for your lovely feedback, Gershon... A pleasure!!!
