The World in Your Hands
A little bead between your fingers slips
And then another, and another yet
Linked with a bit of cord, in corde1 linked
Like planets all in rhythm with their sun
Each bead is our created world in small:
Each ocean a baptism, each island a hope
Each wind a prophecy whispering to
An exiled people waiting for the dawn
And for your fiat mihi to that Light
A little bead between your fingers waits
I 1n corde - "in the heart" from "In corde Iesu," "in the heart of Jesus"
2 Fiat mihi - St. Luke 1:38
