-- The Senses Revealed --

By John Herlihy

I see with a blindness now beginning to see,

I hear with a deafness now beginning to hear,

I smell with an aroma now beginning to smell,

I taste with a fullness now beginning to taste,

I touch with a richness now beginning to touch,

The senses now released of their outer crutch.

The inner eye sees with an I witness invisible,

The inner ear hears with a silence indivisible,

The inner scent smells heavenly odors incredible,

The inner taste experiences a life delectable,

The inner touch knows feelings deeply emotional,

The senses unveiled exposing worlds sensational.

The knowledge of the senses there for all to see;

The wisdom of the senses explores the inner me.
