a poet's senses

there are words
on the rays of the sun
on the moonlight
on the fleeting clouds
on the crashing waves
if you just look closely

there are words
on the scented candles
on the bathroom soap
on the crackling firewood
on the afternoon tea
if you smell them carefully

there are words
on the ring of the oven
on the chirping of birds
on the trickling of rain
on the clapping of thunder
if you'd just listen carefully

there are words
on the early breakfast
on the hot chocolate
on the burnt toast
on the sweetness of honey
if you taste them carefully

there are words
on the soft couch
on the embroidered bed
on the old cardigan
on a broken heart
if you feel them like me
