Just a little blind kid – By Niranjan Selvadurai<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"little<\/p>\n

\nFlowers are beautiful, so they say,<\/span>
\nLook, look along the path way,<\/span>
\nSee so many colours bright,<\/span>
\nRed, yellow, blue, pink and white.<\/span><\/p>\n

Flowers have a sweet, sweet smell,<\/span>
\nThat I do know very well,<\/span>
\nTheir softness too, I can tell,<\/span>
\nBut their colours baffle like hell!<\/span><\/p>\n

This thing called colour, I neither feel nor hear,<\/span>
\nPlease tell me why, Mommy dear?<\/span>
\nWhat do “look” and “see” mean, oh so unclear,<\/span>
\nAre they things we do to items near?<\/span><\/p>\n

I am just a little blind kid, they say,<\/span>
\nWill I see, when I\u2019m bigger someday?<\/span>
\nThe day is warmer than the night,<\/span>
\nBut what is this thing they call light?<\/span><\/p>\n

I know the sweet scent of flowers ,<\/span>
\nBut not their rainbow of colours.<\/span>
\nHow would I know beautiful things? <\/span>
\nStars that twinkle or rainbows in springs<\/span><\/p>\n

Are those tears dripping down my arm?<\/span>
\nMom, dear mom I meant no harm.<\/span>
\nBecause of what I say, please do not cry<\/span>
\nFor other kids, sometimes they lie!<\/span><\/p>\n
