Seven Senses

See 
 the beauty 
 of the earth,
 starting with birth.

 Hear
 the roar
 of thunders voice,
 a child rejoice.

 Touch
 creation,
 water and sand,
 a loved one’s hand.

 Smell
 the wind
 and salty seas,
 honey from bees.

 Taste
 fresh fruits
 and apple crisp,
 loves sweet kiss.

 Feel 
 your neighbours 
 from the start,
 with open heart.
 

 Sense 
 others feelings
 before you begin,
 so all can win.
