Breathless

She touched the eXquisite dew,

Glistening in the morn rays-

So what if she could not see the day?

Breathless she became.

Touching the baby's neck,

She felt his vocal chords-

So what if she could not hear his cries?

Breathless she became.

She saw the birds happily chirping,

Perched atop the mango trees-

So what if she herself could not talk?

Breathless she became.

Blindfolded she held his hand,

And trekked up the mountain,

So what if darkness engulfed her

Before she could see the stunning view?

Breathless she became.
