I have sight,
As almost everyone does,
I’m not blind
In my mind,
I can see what is and was,
I can see
You to me.

I have a sense of hearing,
All the words,
And song birds,
The music of self being.

I can touch,
Though not much,
Fingers feel when allowed to
So to clasp,
Lightly grasp,
Going about what I do.

Yet to have
Or not have,
Determined for ownership’s,
Do we have,
Or does from our senses slips;
And not have.

Thank you, WindWalker,
Glad my words pleased your eyes.

Thank you, Lady in White,
Pleased you liked;
Giving is only worthwhile if there is someone
To receive.
