Making Real Sense Of The Senses

Our eyes are for looking at things
But they are also for crying
When we are very happy or cery sad

Our ears are for listening
But so are our hearts
So are our hearts

Our noses are for smelling food
But also the wind and the grass and
If we try very hard, butterflies

Our hands are for feeling
But also for hugging and touching so gently

Our mouths and tongues are for tasting
But also for saying words, like
"I love you," and
"Thank you, God, for all of these things."
