October Senses: A Poem

A 'full-sense' poem

Here is what some may say is a ‘nonsense poem’. I wanted a poem that subverted our casual use of our senses and perhaps urge the reader to experience the world anew. What had come out of ‘nonsense’ is a call to ‘full-sense’ in the world around us.

Have you seen the chill of the air
On an October day?
Or felt the orange that clothes the leaves
As they fall where they may?
 
Have you tasted the green of the grass
Right where it lays?
Or smelled the rustle of the trees
As they twist and sway?
 
Have you heard the light splashing from the sun’s rays?
Tis a day to sense October in a new way.
