Gifts

They are scattered all around

Different shapes and sizes

Containing parts and pieces of a whole

Presented far and near

Discernible only by the giver

The One who gives all good things

 

Can we see where they live in us

Opening them to share with

Those around us in hard places

In easy places, in places of challenge

In places where we meet life

 

Do we dare to see the fruits

As they ripen and fall around us

Surrounding us in the love we

Have given,, grown in faiths garden

In rich soil, with sun and rain

Do we know Giver and gift
