Senses

Our eyes tell a story In everything we see, Images and pictures Stored in our memory. Our ears hear music And nature's divine power, Voices of friends and family, The clock chiming in each hour. Our noses take in scents, Flower's perfume, salty sea, The first cut of grass And freshly ground coffee. Our tongues taste our food Whether savoury or sweet, Creamy, nutty chocolate Or Sundays roasted meat. Our skin feels the touch, A warm hug or bear squeeze, The tickle of our lovers hands Or a slight summer breeze. Our sixth sense is intuition, A feeling from within, The angel on our shoulder The eternal voice therein. So use all your senses, Let them all collide, Explore our wondrous world, Let them be your guide. 6th March 2017
