Mending
It was a beautiful vase;

Made with expert craftmanship,

Intricate design;

Surely not made by human hands.

Now, there it lay;

Scattered about on the floor

In what must have been a million pieces.

He picked it up,

Handling each piece as if it were priceless

And irreplaceable.

Piece by piece

And with utmost care

Each piece went back into place.

Finished, He stood back

And looked at His work and said,

"It isn't new anymore;

It has scars

But in time and with patience

My love will do what others could not.

The day will come when my love

Will make it whole and beautiful once more."

by Barbara Aldrich
