World Of Darkness...


Touch is their eyes for they can-not see,
They have to walk so carefully.
Seeing Eye dogs their closest friend,
Total commitment, no pretend!

Life within a world of darkness,
How do you explain?
What a white cloud looks like,
Or the wind blowing at the rain;

How do you tell of the grass?
Or a tree stood proud and high,
How do you explain the colours?
Or the different blues in the sky!

How to describe a pattern,
Or explain the dark from light,
So hard it is to explain these things,
To people who live in the night!

Can you say the sky is like music?
So soft then so fierce all around!
Can you tell of the colours around you?
By connecting them to sound!

Is the rain like a piano?
Tinkling like the key,
The rush of a full orchestra…
May describe the fierce wide sea!

How do we explain…?
To someone who is blind,
What the world around looks like,
The words are so hard to find!

Would you say the sun…?
Is like a ball of fire,
Fierce and hot and baking,
That's what makes us perspire!

It's very hard and sad…
For people who can-not see,
We should say our thanks…
For blind we could easily be!
