God made the eye- <br />An extension of brain: <br />To see the beauty of all things, <br />He made. <br /> <br />God made the eye- <br />The mirror of the brain: <br />To show the mind’s beauty <br />Within. <br /> <br />God made the eye- <br />A camera: <br />To picture Nature’s lively snaps, <br />For man. <br /> <br />God made the eye- <br />A receiver: <br />To gather photic stimuli <br />For thought. <br /> <br />God made the eye- <br />Lovely: <br />To give expression to the face <br />Of man. <br /> <br />God made the eye- <br />For sight: <br />To perceive what the environs <br />Can give. <br /> <br />God made the eye- <br />For knowing world of good and bad: <br />To walk the roads in Heaven’s light, <br />On earth. <br /> <br />God made the eye- <br />For seeing light in dark alleys: <br />To look before one leaps in life <br />On earth. <br /> <br />God made the eye- <br />With two fine lids: <br />To prevent vice <br />From reaching mind. <br /> <br />God made the eye- <br />To see and feel: <br />The Omniscient Lord <br />Of creation. <br /> <br />God made the eye- <br />To know His love <br />And mercy great: <br />For man and beast. <br /> <br />God made the eye- <br />To see the light <br />Of Godliness <br />On earth’s terrain. <br /> <br />God made the eye- <br />To choose the road <br />That leads to Hell <br />Or to Heaven. <br /> <br />Copyright by Dr John Celes 3-22-2008<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-human-eye/
