Cover your eyes and read…
Read the words painted in
The darkness of the one place
You can find true comfort;

Cover your ears and listen…
Listen to the melodies of the
Songs that play in caverns
Between sound and deaf;

Cover your nose and smell
Smell the sweetest scents
Of life surrounding you as
You acknowledge desire;

Cover your mouth and taste…
Taste the delicacies of the day
That creep in through other
Senses to a place of fulfillment;

Now…cover your heart and live
Live as one who knows what he
Sees could be heard through the
Smell of sweet tasting eternal joy.

Close your eyes and…reflect.
