I have eyes, but…




I cannot see flowers, I cannot see colours.
I cannot see people, things and places
I cannot see movement, I cannot see change.

But I know…
I know the rose by its fragrance
I know food by its taste

I know my mother by her footsteps.
And my father by his breath.
I know people by their voices.
I know birds from their calls and the flapping of their wings.
I know distance from sounds and noises

I know things by their feel
I know heat and cold by their feel
I know the sun by the warmth of the day.
I know the night by its coolness and silence.

I have eyes but I cannot see
I cannot see, but I KNOW!
Do you KNOW like I KNOW?
