Fragile Frame
I am weaker
than a baby bug,
more fragile than a buttercup.
than a baby bug,
more fragile than a buttercup.
What am I really?
I am a little bit -o-dust
in a whole lot of water.
That's all I am.

Post a CommentHad to read it again. Good Shirley
Such a graphic way to describe yourself. You mean more to me than a bit of dust and a lot of water. Good writing again!
Great work.
Love the phrase "more fragile than a buttercup".
like it!
Such understandable thoughts--and yes, I agree with the others, what we are when paired with God is unmistakably great!
Excellent.
Felt the same way last Monday morning.
Good one!
In and of ourselves, that is what we are.....but in Him, we have strength, and we are precious in His sight.
