"All But Blind" by Walter de la Mare

"All but blind
In his chambered hole
Groped for worms
The four-clawed Mole.

All but blind
In the evening sky,
The hooded Bat
Twirls softly by.

All but blind
In the burning day
The Barn-Owl blunders
On her way.

And blind as are
These three to me,
So, blind to someone
I must be."
