Happy Re-Birth Day to Me!

In honor of my 27th Re-Birth Day, I am posting again the poem Stained Glass.  It's a very short, very descriptive version of the before and after of me.  Not only of me, but everyone who has ever looked at an overwhelming difficulty and wondered how they could make it through their shattered life.

But overcome, you will.  Made into a newer, better version of yourself if you allow the Master Artist His freedom.

Enjoy!

 =======================================


shards of glass
broken
jagged
useless

cast down carelessly
thoughtlessly
dreams shattered
paradigms disjointed


colored by
time, circumstance
events undeserved
unsolicited
unplanned
stained, changed

and then

carefully chosen
cautiously handled
rejoined

placed in perfect order
welded together

by crimson
ribbons
dried, strengthened
new creation

story unfolding
light shining through
impacting the darkness
by a filtered Son
