How delicate are God's handiworks--
Do we handle them with care?
For each one is a Masterpiece--
To have, to Love, to Share.


How fragile are those treasured things
Which come with "Breath of Life,"
But for God's Angels watching o'er--
'Twould soon succomb to strife.


Lord, Help us seize each moment rare--
It's Splendor to behold,
To be warmed by Your Love Divine
Awed by a Grace which ne'er grows old!

David

Not only a great poem, but a great prayer - straight from the heart - straight to the heart.
