Give It

By Julie Dibble

The birds sat atop the spiny limbs of trees

Planning their evening, making their pleas

Whatever can they be saying

Or were they pouring out worries and praying?

Made with such precision and care

Instilled in them is a direction of where

To seek life

To breathe out fear

To find tiny bits of food

To be carried by his air

Let us learn a lesson from the small yet significant sparrow

Trust, be thankful, surrender your sorrow

For in Him lies your everyday hope for every tomorrow
