Priced by Christ

Not for our treasury
but for his glory
the tailings of the yard sale
set out as free

At the end of the driveway
the humble neighbors
coming to the offering
left there for them

To see the faces
hope rising
something the others
did not see

While I was mowing
the front lawn
before the church
hearing their thank you’s
offered up to God
