A Purpose
by louis gander What eye would have a purpose - if rainbows had no hue, if sunsets had no colors, if skies were void of blue? What ear would have a purpose - if lips, inaudible, if harmony was absent sound, if nature, all, was still? What nose would have a purpose - if flowers had no scent, if perfumes had no fragrance, if spring was no event? What tongue would have a purpose - if salt had ne'er a taste, if thoughts were but a vapor, if words just went to waste? What mind would have a purpose - if argumentative, if self-absorbed in ignorance, if truth was 'relative'? What heart would have a purpose - if love, it could not feel, if it was hard as granite stone, if it could never heal? What life would have a purpose - without salvation's tree, without the birth of Jesus Christ, without the Trinity? What soul would have a purpose - if grace had not been free, if faithfulness had not been lived, if saved, we couldn't be? Copyright 2021 by louis gander. Poetry for sermons, story poems and more...
