I Found Her Blind!



She was sitting with care
like alabaster statue.
I entered the room
but her contemplation,
I couldn't interfere.

She was my familiar.
Suddenly her lips were parted
and with a beaming,
she asked me to sit near.

Her eyes were beautiful
but they were of no use.
They were sans of
enjoying earthly beauty,
sans of warm and cool.

We were exchanging views
about day-to-day matters.
Even some were intricated!
But she was constant
about every discussing affair.

I wondered if she was blind!
I knew her two eyes were useless.
She was devoid of eyesight.
But I found her inner sight
was a bless.
