His Eye Is On the Sparrow

Walking along the edge she could not see the abyss below As onward she would dredge for little at all did she know So close would she get wondering how she stayed afloat As other woes beset life too can have many a sour note But there she walked teetering on the edge of the abyss For now at life she balked and of it nothing did she miss Just wanting to be alone no ones help was even needed Her Light wasn't being shone and she felt so defeated When one single sparrow landed farther in from the side Like Someone had planned it a little helper or a guide And soon there were two and then there came two more At this point she knew for Her Creator had much in store Soon she lost track as that edge was no longer in sight Many others also lack perhaps they could use my light She left that mountainside looking back to now realize Wow! I could've died, glad His Sparrows opened my eyes Psalms 102:7 I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top.

Nice inspirational poem Vincent, I think if we all kept our eyes on the Creator and his beautiful creation we'd all be a little less depressed!:)
