My Look...His Look Poem by Mary Oluwadunsin Oyeleke

My Look...His Look



If I have Christ within my heart
I'll surely dress to look the part

Though the world esteems not the part
I'll desert the world cos I know his path

The worldly styles which are extreme
Don't add one thing to his esteem

Though wandering eyes such may attract
From Christian grace they distract

In dress I'll never choose a style
Which causes sneer or smile

But simple beauty we admire
Undue extremes in one's attire
May cause some souls to deviate and retire
And loose the path to Heaven's gate

I'll like to dress in such a way
Whether at my work or play

I'd never be ashamed to meet
Christ's scrutinity from head to feet

'cos my dressing will always represent
The one I know which is Heaven sent

That I may look
Just as he Look.
