No. 12: No Contest

The eyes have it
I can make my way
Through the dark
See where I'm going, where I have been

I can retrace my steps
Just for the sheer pleasure
Mostly I move forward
Feasting on the vistas and horizons

Yes, the eyes have it
For the colors of the day
The shadows of the night
Making my way through my world

I'm grateful that my eyes have it
Even though they are enhanced
By framed lenses perched on my nose
I still see with clarity all around

I would miss hearing
The sounds in my life
Even the cacophony of chaos
But I can see it

So it's no contest
When asked: Sight or sound?
I choose sight because
The eyes have it
