Fragile

Fragil

It was a one of kind piece and rare for its time

Sparkling, beautiful, and valuable like glass

So many admired it and longed for its shine

Walking by in lines beholding as they passed

But when you put something out on display

You must be more vigilant to guard its care

Too many distractions take your attention away

And you can lose something so unique and rare

It was a chain of events that led to this fate

And careless attention ended up in its demise

We tried to stop it, but we we waited too late

So this tragic event should come as no surprise

What we once held dear is now broken and shattered

Its sparkle, beauty, and value are here no more

We weep and bleed sifting through pieces scattered

Mourning what has crashed on the cold, hard, floor
