Fragility of Life
The glass you hold in your hand
Has a fragility about it
Unlike us humans
It’s completely transparent
But like us
There is a need to handle with care
An accidental knock
And the glass can crack or chip
As the glass tumbles to the floor
We know its fate
But unlike the glass
When we feel like we are in pieces
We can heal
A cracked glass can still hold water
A broken heart can be mended
Those shattered pieces
Can be gathered up
Made into a beautiful mosaic
Admired by many
Like the chipped glass
We can still fulfil our purpose
