Here and there in oysters fall <br />A single grain of sand <br />Producing later a lustrous ball <br />In a fisher man’s hand <br /> <br />Attacking the sand found inside <br />Through membranes twisting round <br />Turning, spinning seeking to hide <br />This foreign body found <br /> <br />When anti bodies cease to curl <br />When no more a threat <br />The oyster may reveal a pearl <br />A necklace to beset <br /> <br />Let’s think the pearl now if we can <br />As a coat around a child <br />A simile to The Son of man <br />Through whom one’s reconciled <br /> <br />Nature reveals to you and I <br />Christ’s secret to display <br />The wonderful plan of God’s on high <br />As simply shown today <br /> <br />Though countless yet may think it odd <br />While others see untrue <br />Mary gave birth to man and God <br />Who died for me and you <br /> <br />God’s DNA entered her womb <br />Where human flesh grew round <br />Emerging from a simile tomb <br />For sinners to be found <br /> <br />Casing The Genes Heaven had sown <br />Mary to Christ gave birth <br />With God Inside! His flesh and bone <br />As One walking the earth…….<br /><br />Michael P. Johnson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/life-s-pearl-of-wisdom/
