Body Parts
I use my eyes to gaze on beauty
My mouth to say hello
North and South my teeth bring a smile
A wink to let you know
I use my shoulders when I'm shrugging
Both my arms for might
These two hands help me grab
When I need to hold on tight
My ears are here to listen
To other noises people make
A heart that beats forgiveness
Though not as much as I would like
A belly that often grumbles
Until it's satisfied
And if truth be known the same thing goes
For the inner workings of my mind
Then there's my knees that bend with ease
When my backside needs a break
And last but not least here come my feet
As I move along my way...
