The Poet's Eyes

Oh poet!
Lend me your eyes!

Reading you,
I see I have never seen.

Hearing you,
I know I have never known.

So grant me,
Every color and tone.

And gift me,
Wondrous shapes and flow.

But pity me,
Even one more sightless day.

    1. For this one, I was inspired by Khusro's style. His ghazals are sometimes like this. But you are the "oh poet" here... your poems have inspired me to write.
