Have you

Have you ever touched the rain,

looked an eagle in the eye,

alleviated another's pain,

stopped a baby's cry?

Taken the time to watch the mist roll in,

walked in a cloud,

felt the touch of love's skin,

noticed the texture of a dead man's shroud?

Do you know the scent of pink?

Can you talk to the birds,

taste the flavor of ink

feel the power of words?

What a brilliant way to remind us all to engage with their surroundings, appreciate beauty, and reflect on the profound moments that shape our understanding of existence.
Quite though provoking and touches on deep connections between humans and the natural world, as well as the emotional and sensory experiences that enrich life.

Thanks for sharing.

I love your examples of mindfulness! Everyone should take note, and enjoy simple moments and sensations as often as they can. Beautiful overall, but the line "Have you ever touched the rain" is my favorite.

Using our senses fully is so excellently constructed in this beautiful poem, dear Soren. The visual detail is so eloquent and I just love the questions which you ask your reader. The power of your words is amazing, captures the reader's attention immediately and I have to admit I was kept a willing captive right up to the very last line in the poem! Sublime penning, my dear friend. Gratitude for sharing...
