The creative senses
I would take the sound of
Happy children playing in the park,
the exotic fruit squeezing its juice into my palm
and the frosty leaves falling onto the Autumn ground.
I would take the taste of
the freshly baked baguettes coming out of the oven,
the sour tang of the shiny blackberries in the field
and the melting cheese wrap around my tongue.
I would take the smell of
the strawberry tarts sitting in the bakery,
the distant waft of the cakes and cookies in Costco
and the rare steak being prepared by the butcher.
I would take the sight of
the vibrant beam of the hidden full moon,
the ecstatic grins of the friends in the school grounds
and the glittering stars in the sky, gazing proudly at the world down below.
I would take the feel of
soft beds that would drift me off into another world,
the delicate snowflakes that fall from the wintery sky
and the warmth of a night fire burning beside me.
