A ripple, a sparkle-just one among thousands-

But this one holds a beauty, a richness, for me.

I scoop it up with a gentle smile,

And think how like us all is this small treasure:

Broken, dirty, shining in the spray of life’s tumult,

Each of us a part of an enormous, majestic, hallowed whole.

To the Beach Comber, every cracked shell is important,

Serves its purpose, paints the picture.

We all, though beautifully chipped, scarred, and broken, sparkle in the spray.
