Who ought to take our praise <br /> <br />And fit for us to please? <br /> <br />Who sent his breath on all <br /> <br />And things began to be? <br /> <br />Who thought the world to being <br /> <br />And govern those unseen? <br /> <br />Who shapes the worlds in spheres <br /> <br />And sets their spheres in speeds <br /> <br />Tilting the earth in clime? <br /> <br />Who calls the dawn to be <br /> <br />And thrusts the sun with beams? <br /> <br />Who gives the breaths of life <br /> <br />And claims the same at death? <br /> <br />Who calls the cocks to crow <br /> <br />And man to sweat his brows? <br /> <br />Who gave us brains to think <br /> <br />And arms to till the greens? <br /> <br />Who spread the sky with wings <br /> <br />And gave the sky its clouds <br /> <br />Clapping thunders aloud? <br /> <br />Who set the tunes of birds <br /> <br />And trains their wings to fly? <br /> <br />Who fills the seas with fins <br /> <br />And sees the depths of seas? <br /> <br />Who melt the ice in spring <br /> <br />And ease the pains of drought? <br /> <br />Who sets the mounts in cones <br /> <br />And digs the depths of deeps? <br /> <br />Who sweeps the sands with winds <br /> <br />And brings their dusts with breeze? <br /> <br />Who soaks the grounds with rains <br /> <br />And flames the fields with grains? <br /> <br />Who gave us eyes to see <br /> <br />And nose with which to smell? <br /> <br />Who gave us mouth to eat <br /> <br />And tongues to taste the meals? <br /> <br />Who knows and weighs one's deeds <br /> <br />No matter how one feels? <br /> <br />Who bathes the morn with dews <br /> <br />And clothes it with its hues? <br /> <br />Who hurries out the night <br /> <br />And serves the day with light? <br /> <br />Who wears the woods with greens <br /> <br />And smears the stems with scents <br /> <br />Sweet and nice to the sense? <br /> <br /> - Jude Ogunade,2011, Ofankor, Ghana.<br /><br />Jude Ogunade<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/elohim-2/
