1.
the periphery glistens
light catches eyes in the rearview mirror
the glimmer seems sweeter than the cup handed from the One who knows better
2.
the future is a lizard skin
something to shed unless it holds answers
wanting a promise from the One who holds the future in His hands
3.
the child throws a tantrum
acknowledging all that has been missed
ignoring the gentle words of the One who loves and protects
4.
the woman relents
no longer asking for the honey from another life
seeing the sweet with the bitter in His holy sacrifice
5.
the treasure is stored
it is a truth not everyone has understood
to know a piece of His heart and to know it as good
