GOD'S EYES, by AMOS RUSSEL WELLS Poet's Biography First Line: Thank god his eyes are everywhere Last Line: The father's kiss. Subject(s): God | ||||||||
Thank God His eyes are everywhere, That no far hiding-place But His keen vision waits me there, And my disgrace. For where God's eyes are, He goes too, His mind that understands. His mouth, the home of all things true, His tender hands. I cannot flee His judging eyes, And so I cannot miss His brooding breast, His guidance wise, The Father's kiss. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE MOUNTAIN IS STRIPPED by DAVID IGNATOW AS CLOSE AS BREATHING by MARK JARMAN UNHOLY SONNET 1 by MARK JARMAN UNHOLY SONNET 13 by MARK JARMAN BIRTH-DUES by ROBINSON JEFFERS THE SILENT SHEPHERDS by ROBINSON JEFFERS GOING TO THE HORSE FLATS by ROBINSON JEFFERS A BATTLE SONG (WRITTEN IN THE WORLD WAR) by AMOS RUSSEL WELLS |
