Sensory

Senses I feel
Show me the way:
Now fond appeal
Toys with new day.


Each feeling wave
Casts a new light:
To dare, to brave,
To glimpse bold sights.


I walk life's road
With fragrant style,
With easy load,
With carefree smiles.


Burdens I drop
As I now see
Stormy days stop --
Peace comes to free.


Senses I know
Limit true sight;
Grace transcends flow
To higher light.


I learn to know
Beyond learning:
A certain glow
Uplifts seeing.


Now, time and space
Mask the real thing;
Beyond this face,
Lies true being.


Sensory plays
Veil spirit-soul;
No words can say
Or frame true whole.


And in the end,
We go around
Life's bends and trends
Till lost is found.
