Precious

She fingered

Her Precious Gift

Running over ever

Edge and Crack.


She thought of

the history it represented.

The joys,

The pains.


It's meaning

Was immeasurable

Unattainable

Sacred.


But then

Thieves came in

And took it

Almost no trace.


The woman

Searched feverently

Her Precious Gift was

Lost.


Under every

Rock

On every

Surface.


She searched

The Earth

The Ocean

The Heavens.


Never stopping,

Never Pausing,

Never Overlooking,

Never-Ending.


Until she

Found it.

Her Precious Gift,

Memory, Meaning.


Heart filling

With joy,

She shared her news

With all she met.

...

Just like the

Lady of her Precious Gift

The God of Israel

Treasures something.


He wrote

It's history

Knows it's joys,

It's pains.


The Meanings are

Immeasurable

Impossible

Sacred.


Thieves came

and kidnapped

them

Almost no trace.


But He calls

It's name

an Unstoppable

Never-ending Search.


Until it Listened

Came back

To It's

Father's Arms.


And He

and all His

People, Angels,

Rejoice.


The 'it' is no it.

It's you and me.

Every he and she

We are Treasures.


And He'll never stop looking

Until He's found every one

of Us.


We're sacred.
