What He Gave To Us

I wanted to do something different today I didn’t know what to do, or even what to say. I had a feeling deep inside- that made me Want to scream “ I’m alive”. I looked around at all the beauties of the earth And thought about all my worth. That I was born with all five senses That the lord had given to me. The sense to Touch a delicate flower The sense to Hear a bewitching hour The sense to Smell what s in the air. The sense to Taste the juices of a pear The sense to See the beauty of a pearl There is another sense that they don’t say Such as Feelings- of love, to wipe tears away Feelings cover all aspects of life It can make things wrong or things right. Feelings of passion and despair Of compassion from one who cares Bitterness, anger, hate and sorrow Even those make life worth while. There is so much that we must be grateful for For GOD has opened all the doors. He knew that we needed all these things To make our lives complete. But there was still something missing What good was all these senses If we didn’t have the main sense. The sense to think and rationalize All that he had given That was the thing that would really Make life worth living. (08/10/11)
