precious

all that matters is
that you are 
precious in my sight

GOD whispers
this truth to us
without fail
from beginning breaths 
of creation 
through the hovering 
over our lives
to that last 
breath

all that matters
is that i 
feel 
i know
i define
i celebrate
YOU
are precious

GOD sings 
and dances this truth
because 
GOD 
knows 
just how 
many
things in life
people in life
work to whittle
away 
the precious 
                  ness 
lovingly planted
deep within our 
dna

all that matters
is
that
i 
see more than a glimpse 
of 
your precious
                     ness
i see 
you

i feel
believe
and define you
as precious
and 
that matters
more than
those 
things and people 
who work to whittle away
the 
precious
            ness
lovinglingly 
planted 
deep within 
YOUR
dna

you are precious
hear the song
see the dance
savor the words

you are 
dearly precious
