A Poem to Eyes
Dear Eyes of Sight,
You're the Beauties of the world.
What would life be
without your pearls?
Would we have skyscrapers
that tower us all?
Would we have battles
over differences appalled?
Would we crush wildlife
to make our houses look pretty?
Would we throw so much out
if we weren't hid from this destiny?
Although eyes, you've caused us to be greedy
you've also produced miracles of beauty.
The ability we have
to see colors of Earth
To see how far we've come
and how far we must search.
To be able to see
feelings of pain and of glory
To look in someone's eyes
and learn their true story.
Through You we have the power
to love one another
To understand, to give,
to receive each other.
Oh, Eyes of Sight,
let your beauty brighten the world!
And please, teach us love
instead of discord.
