Reborn

                              

The crisp, cloudless sky, this glorious Saturday afternoon,

Is bluer than it's been in fifty years.

How can I possibly make such an extravagant claim?

 

Because I'm viewing the universe through new lenses,

Which render my sight perfectly unblurred;

Indeed, I'm not wearing glasses at all.

 

My eyes are free to see colors, shapes,

As they see themselves: in unadulterated jubilation.

I can almost see the air, catch glimpses of sound.

 

What, other than having cataracts miraculously removed,

Did I do, to deserve such a gift?

It's as if vision and I are twins reborn of euphoria.
