I never felt so close to God as I did when this gorgeous hummingbird clasped my finger.

God's Tiny Claws

By Scott D. Zachary
Copyright 2009

Nothing so dainty
Could feel so powerful
As God's tiny claws
Wrapped around my finger

What a blessing to behold
In his exhaustion
He nearly fell asleep
His eyelid drooped

I held His glorious creation aloft
Until my arm was leaden
Perfectly content
Knowing that I adore Him

Wow Scott! I love hummingbirds! This is a great thought, 'God's tiny claws.' Only God could create a bird so amazingly perfect and such and inspiration to all of us that get remotely close enough to view their excellence. Blessings...Frances
