Played with, mishandled, juggled, fumbled then
dropped
Once whole but now broken, this precious glass
Shattered and liberally on the ground it lays
A motley of pieces large, small, and in between
all scattered
......
Upon that hill near Galilee Jesus fed
multitudes with some fishes and bread.
Nourishment could only be provided
once the food was broken and divided
And do you recall the jar that was broken
showing her love without a word spoken?
For when breaking the jar she filled the room
with the sweet odour of loving perfume.
