Together
- One evening a
blind
- A deaf and a
mute
- Were sitting
together for some time
- On a bench in a
garden.
- They were
lively, smart and smiling.
- The blind saw
the world
- With the eyes of
the deaf.
- The deaf heard
- With the ears of
the mute
- And the mute
understood from the movements
- Of the lips and
faces of both.
- And all three
- Simultaneously
inhaled the scent of the flowers
