A poem written by Nicole Thomas in honor of our featured January book; A Piece of the Moon by Chris Fabry

 A PIECE OF THE MOON


Our wandering eyes tend to land

on the glitter and gold scattered about.

We waver and fall, only to miss,

Too many blessings for us to count.

 

Those special items held deep within

That mean more than a cent or two,

Held dear like a Christmas memory

Or a prayer we’d pray to come true.

 

In those fleeting moments,

When falling stars may fall,

May we reconsider and remember,

The most important things of all.

 

Blissful wishing, often forgetting,

We tend to blink too soon

For deep inside, tucked away

We’ve already been given a piece of the moon.
