I have documented my issues with my eyes previously and that’s when I really realised how much we depend on our eyes in our daily activities.
At its peak, when I was scared that I would not be able to see from that eye anymore, I was tourtured by the thought that I will never be able to see my children or my loved ones again or even this beautiful world we have.
So here’s today’s poem in honour of the importance our eyes have for us.
Eyes
The first thing we do when we wake up
And the last thing we do when we end the day, tired and yawning
Is to open or shut our eyes, our window to the world
Our eyes show us this beautiful world
Let us know the love that shines in the eyes of the ones we loved
We use it all day, every day
Until its an automatic gesture, missing it only when it gets in disarray
So make sure you take care of your eyes
You only have a pair till you die
Otherwise, you may fall into despair and regret
At that point, there’s nothing to do but fume and fret!
