Glasses Half Full

When I awoke this morning
Lo, a speck was found in eye.
And to my normal contact lenses,
I had to say goodbye.

While glasses periodically do wear
Never to the outside disclose
Meaning a new day of adventure
Found striking itself a pose.

First stop to the gym
For exercises focused on back
But already the walk down
Had my balance out of whack.

The periphery ebbs and flows
Like the tide across a ship
And ne'er a horizon to focus
When the sidewalk took a dip.

Cooking lunch was not a problem
With a two ingredient dish
And dicing was successful -
Only one slight near miss.

The sunlight feels extra bright
Though a half-inch glass
Spring is nearer than you think
When you cannot see the grass.
