Notes About The Poem

When you're feeling down and really at a low point it's important to remember these things. All the things I mention here, sunrises, sunsets, the blue of the sky, the song of birds and the happiness they bring. The sight of a butterfly, the stars in the sky, all the wonderful and truly miraculous things God has surrounded us with . All these things are amazing. They all sparkle like the stars in the sky, and so do you. God made you, AND HE DON'T MAKE JUNK.

Think On These Things

Which sunrise is most spectacular?
Which blue sky is bluest?
Are there words in my vernacular,
To express which love is truest?

For love is like a jewel rare,
With many facets, sides,
Which side sparkles more, compare,
In which side does more beauty hide?

Which miracle is more miraculous?
Which happiness holds more joy?
Which one is more marvelous?
Which does one most enjoy?

For each one is amazing,
Each dazzles in our eyes,
As though we stand there gazing,
At starlight in the skies;

And you are just like all these things.
You are beyond compare,
A blessing sent on angel's wings,
You're like a treasure, rare;

For nowhere is there one like you.
You're unique, one of a kind.
God had one thought when He made you.
You were all that was on His mind.

I think this is a wonderful write and each one of us is unique - I think of when we have to renew our drivers licence we all have to have a thumb print taken, and each thumb print in this world of billions of people is different, I think that is amazing.

It takes a real saint and/or poet to view people this way, even though we're all supposed to... a little story: There was an octogenarian Sage who stood upright for 7-8 hours every Sunday (in the early 1990's) to greet thousands of well-wishers in NYC. When asked how he could stand it, as he was in severe pain, he replied that everyone in line was as precious to him as a diamond. 'I'm a diamond-counter,' he said. Maybe you know who this is... :) gw

Good one for building up a fragile ego. The Bible tells us He is there when He knits us together in our mother's womb. He loves each one but the question is do we love Him? Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara
