What I would see if I could see

the leaves are changing color and if I could see them I would see the leaves dressed in their fall finery of bright reds, golds and oranges falling like well placed area rugs placed on a carpet of green grass.

I would see the bright colors of the perennials in Moms flower garden. I could see what is a weed and what is a flower.

I could see the bright colors of the sweaters and hoodies that I love to wear. I could see if my socks matched .

I could see regular size print on the computer screen or in a book or magazine. I wouldn’t need the thick ugly magnifying glasses that I must wear to make out even large print.

I could see who was calling my name and waving at me from across the room.

I could see the intricate stitches of the needlework projects that I used to do.

I could see who or what was coming up beside me with out having to turn my head to look dirclty at them

I could see the world I live in

For 2 1/2 years now my view of the world has been reduced to a small grey area no nore then 10 feet in front of me . I have optic neuritis which is part of the MS that I have.
