IF NO SIGHT HAD I


 Suddenly, so suddenly, my eyes, they could no 
 Longer see,

 Where did everything go, what am I to become, I'm blind.


 Darkness, only darkness can be my world now, to be 
 Afraid,

 Never again a sunny day, the night visits' me repeatedly.


 If no sight had I there would be many new thoughts' and 
 Adventures,

 The wind I would hear as I did before, my Imagination 
 Would create pictured scenes of what it was doing.
             

 Music would still be heard although my mind could see the 
 Story a song might tell with its words,
                                  

 A television show now only to be heard, no picture book 
 To go with.

 A kiss could still be placed upon her lips, no sight or 
 Sound do I need,

 Feelings' here are what will be needed and a little 
 Sense of touch,

 If no sight had I, life would be just fine.
