Wonders

I loved to see the days go by

all blue and green and gold

It showed me that the world was mine

and all its glories would unfold.

 

I loved the blueness of the sky

with clouds all drifting 'round

I could look, with a tear in my eye

at all the wonders I had found.

 

I wish that I could see them now

so I could view wonders once again

My eyes have now become my hands

and my sight is in these fingers ten.

I think this is a poignant, well-written poem, Sheila.
