Gingerly

Gingerly
I must be
cautious
with this one
it's fragile
and I'm clumsy
with such things
watch it
my arm is
moving too quickly
steady
easy
slow
put away the
dustpan
I won't need it
not this time
that was close
I can't let my
feet
get ahead of
my head
like so many times
before
or else
this one
more beautiful
than the others
will end up
shattered
like the rest
