Sensing Hope
Hope is entering my life again
after a very painful and bleak era
I can see, hear, feel, smell and taste it!
I can see it coming in the form
of opportunities, poems being created,
people guiding and helping me
I can feel it in the form of peace, hugs, and
the lack of numbness that has been around
for a very long time
I can taste it because of the numbness
leaving and making way for more acute taste
I can hear it in the form of music, encouragement
and many audio sensory experiences
I can smell it in the form of the unique smell of
each of the special people in my life,
the smell of thunderstorms, the smell of the summer
flowers and most of all, the smell of life
