A World made of Glass:

Fields of dried out daisies
Corn husks mothers make into dolls
Rainbows that shine through the ruin of hurricanes
Two lanes of red ants dancing
Disappearing into London smoke and fog
Women, children gone hungry
The aching fathers failure to provide
Patriarchal societies that have forgotten God
The rains of autumn fall
Turn to sleet and hail as winter dawns
Ice ponds and frozen snowballs
Much like its people
This world cracks, shatters, splinters off
we're all made of unstable glass
And in the end fear brings us back to faith
Temporary escapes, play acting they pray;
In the name of Jesus Christ: Amen
