Within And Without Eyes Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

After one's mind has been shocked,
And traumatized...
By illness or another life 'encounter'!
An awareness quite different,
Broadens an understanding...
Before not realized.

Openness to thought,
Comes into a clearer view!
Intentions not mentioned,
Become 'sensitized'.
Within...
And without eyes to witness!
A greater thankfulness is expressed.
A greatfulness brings a peace of mind,
To rest.
And comforts those who know.
