Every Day I am asked
"How are You ?"
My response is always
"Fine, thank you "
What I would really like to say
is
"Yes ~ I am O.K. "
I Have My Sight....
although not perfect
I can still see the glorious sunsets,
the antics of a puppy,
the smile of a child..
and the most important...
I can see if there are any bugs
in my food...
I Have My Hearing...
even though impaired
I can hear the music that takes
the wrinkles out of my day ...
I can hear others tell me ~ they
love me !
And
every morning I can hear the snap, crackle, pop
~ even if it isn't cereal...
I Have My sense Of Smell....
although marred with allergies
I could tell if the house is on
fire ~
or the baby needs changing~
oh and isn't it heavenly
to smell that first cup of coffee
in the morning?
I Still Have My Sense Of Taste...
I can tell when something has gone
bad or sour....
Even though I have to wonder about
my own cooking sometimes ...
LOL
I Still Have My sense Of Touch....
even though some people say i am
really touched ...
The joy of touching another , loving
another , petting your dog,
makes you feel you are not alone...
I am o.k. you see
I can walk even though it may take
me a while to get there
~ or I may stumble
I can talk sometimes without stopping
~
I can laugh even when nothing is
funny
and I can cry anytime I want to.
In fact I think I am better than
just Okay !!!
How About You my friend ???
