Mosaic
A single tile of its own shape and color,
by itself unremarkable, without distinction,
having little worth without purpose or context,
alone it shows only itself and little more.
Placed carefully together by a skillful hand,
joined with others, yet each uniquely set.
Now as one there is something more,
made in artistry to portray an image.
This new expression calls for response
to the illustration seen clearly in connection,
the uniting in order displays the beauty
found in the very spirit of the Creator.
Simple pieces in a spectacular design,
meant to demonstrate exquisite splendor.
Even one missing from its place detracts,
from the majestic likeness of being.
This is the body of Christ,
moments of worship,
reflections of glory,
the love of God.
