Seeing With God's Eyes

Oh, if we could but
see with God's eyes...

How different 
this world 
would look--
colors infinite 
in depth, 
brighter than
even the sun 
but we would 
never go blind.

And we would see 
every leaf turn,
every tree rise, 
every bird fly, and
all the life at the 
oceans' floor 
would swim freely 
in our minds 
whilst the stars waltz 
in myriad galaxies and 
Eternity itself seem 
but a jest, time's prank.
