In Gratitude for all I See

We often forget the wonderful gifts each of us have and so this post is to remind us of our wonderful gifts most of us here use every day and so take for granted,

The gift of our sight. 

Below is a beautiful view of the sun through the clouds. My good friend Svein from Norway who takes amazing photo’s gifted me this image a few weeks ago. His beautiful photo’s of Norway can be found at his Blog  See Norway  

Time has been short to be creative this week on my blog.The poem below I wrote it originally back in 2008.  So I thought I would team up the photo and my poem

I am eternally grateful for the gifts given and I thank you All for sharing them with me.

Dark Sunrise.

 

Here I am at the morning rise

Where all I hear is the bird call cries.

Alone I sit and wait for the day

As I listen for you to come my way.

 

I feel the grass beneath my feet

As yet another day I greet.

The beats of wings I know fly by

As tears escapes away from eyes.

 

I smell the fragrance of the flowers

As I while away the hours

The coolness of the clouds above

The breath of wind as soft as doves.

 

The ruffles of my gown so blow

As in my darkness I do go.

For all of you can see this land

But in my eyes all is bland.

 

The beauty that you see each day

Don’t take for granted this I say.

For some are born in darkened rooms

And all we see is black and gloom.

 

But I see all in my own way

Although for me it’s dark in day

I sense the world through feel and touch

And fragrance too it means so much

 

My Dog to guide, my eyes to me

Right now he’s gone to play you see.

His dedication will not cease.

My Inner vision, I am at peace

 

Sunrise for me maybe dark

But I know your soul, I feel your heart

So judge ye not those like me

My inward sight is my true key.

 

No different from you am I

Just because I see no sky

And yet I feel you turn away

For I was born ‘Blind’ this way
