Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is disabilities.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com .

A name poem for a blind person who sees all the beauty of life with his other senses:

Sebastian may be blind, but he can see

Everything extant to you and me.

Because his sight is safely tucked away,

All his other senses come to play,

Singing in the sunlight of their song,

Taking bits of paradise along.

In life there is no limit to our joy,

A gift whatever senses we employ.

Nor if our hearts can see, will we go wrong.
