Helen Keller 1880-1968 ~ Suzanne Vega 1959- ...My Favorite Plum

Use your eyes as if tomorrow you would be stricken blind;
Hear the music of voices, the song of a bird,
As if you would be stricken deaf tomorrow.
Touch each object as if tomorrow your tactile sense would fail.
Smell the perfume of flowers, taste with relish each morsel,
As if tomorrow you could never smell and taste again.
