Got Talent?

One, two, three...
Some even four, five and six...
But either way...
Even one can be fun
Or it can be hard as heck...
It's how we use
the gifts God gives us...
The talents He innately
Placed within our thoughts
Placed within our mouths
Placed within our hands
Placed within our legs
Placed within our shoulders
Placed within our hearts...
Some call them skills
Some call them challenges
Some call them smarts
Some call them thrills...
Others just dig up some dirt
And bury them with their bills...
Lasting within their days
Not valuing the value
God placed within them...
Not seeing with God's eyes
But the eyes of man
That can not withstand
the tides of time...
But only the few feet
Before their own feet.
What talents we see
When we see with care
What pricelessness we tag
On things seen
And words unspoken to
How awesome is the beauty
Captured in the swing of a brush
Swing of a bat
Letter after letters
Word after words
Touch after touch
Catch after catch
Care after care
Thought after thoughts...
We choose
We lose
We gain
We withstand the tides
With that which was gifted
From up above
On the first day
We came into light.
