There are five senses that we all know.

Each one unique, with its own flow,

Together they guide us through our days,

Helping us experience life in many ways.

First, there's sight, the sense of light,

The world around us, oh so bright,

Colors, shapes, and forms abound,

A feast for the eyes, we have found.

Next, we have hearing, the sense of sound,

Music, laughter, voices all around,

The rustling of leaves, the chirping of birds,

The symphony of life, in all its words.

Then comes taste, the sense of flavor,

Salty, sweet, sour, all to savor,

From the tang of citrus to the richness of chocolate,

A world of tastes for us to unlock it.

Fourth, we have touch, the sense of feel,

Sensations that are both soft and real,

From the warmth of the sun to the cool of the breeze,

Textures that vary, to put us at ease.

Last but not least, we have smell,

The sense that can transport us so well,

The aroma of fresh baked bread,

Or the scent of roses that we can't forget.

These are the five senses that we all share,

Each one special, beyond compare,

Together they make up our experience of life,

A wonderland of sensations, both joyous and strife.
