learning from what we have
Smell can be our favorite, the flowers or perfume
A place or just a person, when they walk into a room
Bad smell can also take our memory far
Smell can be our friend or create a mental jar

Taste can give us pleasure, from food or drink so fine
Those tasty treats or grand meals, that pleasure is sure mine
Bad taste can bring us laughter, or make our mouth sure frown
You look for the drink or something nice to quickly wash it down

Hearing brings such soothing, the music from a room
From modern to the classics, your choice of which shall loom
Bad sounds will let us know quick, when we're needed now!
Usually turns out all right, lowering that brow

Touch can bring such pleasure, a pat, a hug or hand
It turns anger into confidence, ready to take a stand
It brings a smile or laughter, you can see it in the eyes
Turns anger into calmness, it comes as a surprise
Bad touch can bring a pain from an unknown source
Pay attention always, you should always stay the course

Seeing would be my favorite, the colors and the sight
of God's creation of the world, I see his wonderful might
Sight for me the blessing to help me through each day
The only time I don't mind to close my eyes to pray
Seeing only bad things, this person will never be
If you look for the bad and not the good that's all you'll ever see
