# The Thinnest of Lines
**by Joanie Roberts**

This
The thinnest of “tents”
We call a home

This
The most valued of life
We call a soul

And we all ~
Living in the blackest space
Underneath the greatest Heavenly stars

Protected
By the thinnest blue line
Between
Absolute space
And
Our shelter home

Gifted to us
To take care of
And to Shepherd
In this one God given life

Here ~
On this

A Mighty blue green earth
We call our beloved
Earthly home
