A blind person who has lost his eyesight 
Is not worse than him who has no vision;

To the latter, dark is the horizon.

A delight in flight ~
Close your eyes~

Premium Member Animal Owl

Majestic and alone,
Roosting in night's darkness.
I deeply probe illusion
With hearing and eyesight,
Guided by wisdom, and
Sound judgment, seek truth in life.

Premium Member my feelings about tv commercials

TV commercials interest me now
I can watch the same one nine times in a row
And still not know what they are selling
Is it my age? My eyesight? My hearing?
Or are commercial writers really bad now?

With Playful Eyesight

With playful eyesight he became a peeker;
Through tough times which were bleaker;
When we had read,
What newspaper said,
We realized that the source was a leaker.

Orange veggie sticks for them have no merit

Love

This is a conspiracy of your eyes
Or my eyesight is wrong.
You love me or is it my mistake.

I'm mad with your eyes.
That's all my fault.
Please ask yourself from the heart.
It's all just his fault.

The Fog Dawns

Smiling, he takes a picture
and the fog dawns on me.
