Touch.

What would the world be,
If you could not feel the soft breeze,
Brush the soft grasses on your palms,
If you cannot touch a soft flower,
Feel the warm sunrays upon your face,
Feel the sand between your toes,
And the softness of fallen leaves,
To feel the cold snow on your fingertips,
And the warlmth of a crakerling fire,
What would the world be,
If we could not apprecicate these things.

Alas, the world would be a hopeless void of carbon monoxide and dirty streets where people worship only the almighty dollar...

Great work.

No, the world would be a very dull place.  I can't imagine losing the sense of touch.

It would be a place bereft of sense.

Good poem
Keth

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
