EYES

Message 3198 of 6486

What a glorious gift!
O’, wonderful sights perceive!
How precious they are...
When each has perfect acuity!
Such colors they reveal!
Glorifying the scenery around!
With visions that please
In all directions...
Views that astound!
Oh, the wonders they send
The mind to greet each day!
Awesomely they work!
Even getting weary this way.
How curiously they set...
Each apart from the other...
For duality,
For perception of depth...
Directions of sights...
In actuality.
Even in dreams they display
Beauties from memories
So bright!
Bringing back sweet visions
Reviewed after day...
Becomes night.
They must be protected,
They need constant care to persist.
Else they may get foggy...
Dimming surroundings that exist.
When they become flawed,
When their true functions are failing,
Then there are specialists,
To test and restore...
Their revealings!

thank you Urban, I am so encouraged today . . . you bring to recall a poem I wrote way back when about how precious it is to see the physical world about us (A PART OF EVERYTHING) and I just couldn't *feel* that gratitude when I wrote the poem just posted (FINALLY FAR FAR AWAY) . . . you and claybo sure know how to lift a poet's spirits! I must spend as much time as possible today using the blessing of sight to create good things for others to see - or at least store up the sights to use another day, like tomorrow - lol!
