E is for Eyes
written by William Henry Davies
From "A Poet's Alphabet", 1925 Link to further information




I need no glass to help my eyes,
   My naked sight shows no decline;
A rich blind man would give his all
   For one of these two jewels of mine.

But I'd give any poor blind man
   One of these precious jewels free -
Could he restore the inward sight
   That Time is taking away from me.
