The Puzzle

[kkmortimer]

Sitting at the table, looking down,
So many pieces all scattered around.
I’ll take them one by one
And place them where they belong.
Each on its own is incomplete,
But fit together, I’ll have a masterpiece.
Without them all, it’s left undone
If I’m missing even one.
So I’ll fit them all where they should be
And a work of art then all can see.

Sitting on the Throne, looking down
So many people all scattered around.
I will take them one by one
And place them where they belong.
Each on his own is incomplete,
But fit together, I’ll have a masterpiece.
Without them all, my work’s undone
Even if I’m missing only one.
I’ll fit them all where they should be
So my glorious church, the world can see.

I like the insight of this poem. I'll let others glean the meaning by reading it, but I believe the comparison is valid and meaningful. :)
