Bj Legros Kelley Poet Rhyme

The Eyes Have It

Twinkle, twinkle ebony eyes

                                      Sweeter than sweet

                                           My cutie-pies

                             Twinkle, twinkle eyes of brown  

                                   You turn each sad frown    

                                          Upside down!

                               Twinkle, Twinkle eyes of blue

                                          You bless us,         

                                    Shining kindness true!             

                               Twinkle, twinkle hazel eyes

                                Through cloud and storm

                                      And sunny skies


                              Eyes beholding love and light

                       Keep them Father, through day and night

                           A sweet bouquet of children bright 

                       Shine in their hearts, with Love's delight

                               Make this world a better place

                               For every person of every race

                            And thank You Lord for blessing me

                               My sweet bouquet, my family


                                                 Amen
