A peek into my new poem book VERSIFY

World Of Darkness


My world is dark around me,


Not a ray of sun is found,


I depend on other senses,


Like touch and smell and sound.



Please! Don’t feel sorry for me,


That’s not the thing to do,


Except that I am blind,


I’m just the same as you.



I can hear the birds that sing,


As they flutter through the air,


I can touch the gentle petals,


Of the flowers growing there.



I cannot see the colors,


That make a rainbow grand,


But I hear the whisper of the wind,


And feel the grass growing on the ground


•.


I can tell you by your footsteps,


Feel your presence when you’re near,


Identify you by your voice,


And I’ve been known to shed a tear.



Poor soul, how he must suffer,


I hear some people say,


But they close their eyes to justice,


So I’d rather be this way.
