The 8 Senses Of Humans

Everyone knows the 5 senses of humans,
Sight, Smell, Touch, Hearing, and Taste.
When one is disabled, the others may
Become more acute to cover it's place.

These are the senses you're usually born with,
"Part Of The Package" as they say--
Hopefully, as you go through life,
Nothing occurs to take one away.

There are 3 more senses, for a total of 8.
You're not born with these, you have to acquire them
As you go through life.  All equally important,
If you have these 3--you have a rare gem.

First is a Sense Of Integrity--doing what's
Right, whether anyone agrees or not.
Because you feel it in your heart and gut,
No matter the situation or opposition you've got.

Second is a Sense Of Compassion--being kind
And helpful and considerate of others problems.
Not being condescending or cruel to people,
You're not any better than them.

Lastly is Common Sense.  It's definitely
Not found too often these days, which is sad--
Because this is one, from the President
On down they will wish they had.
