Week#34 The Ornament

The ornament of a meek and quiet spirit
Adorns the tree of life
Not for a season or a holiday
But for the span of eternal life
 
A pine tree will die as the season fades
Ornaments get put away
In a box up in the garage
For months they will stay
 
The ornament of a meek and quiet spirit
Is in style all year
It shines and sparkles
It’s value so evidently clear
 
Ornaments have meaning
To the one from whom they came
Special memento
To which we lay claim
 
Value the ones to which…
A meek and quiet spirit belong
It’s a valuable gift to enjoy
All the year long
