The Empty Pitcher
The empty scared pitcher
Nicked, cracked, and in need of paint
Trying to fill it with water
It leaked on the sink
Spilling forth to wet

Not spilling on the floor
But going forth to people who
Are also filled and repaired
Now they do not despair
But let their water overflow
Others are touched because it shows
