reflections from May {two poems}

may I learn to live
and be changed
yet remain the same
may my soul retain a light
at its center
and shine
a candle's flicker

I sit and watch the birds

and listen

and remind myself of

who and what and Whose I am

A sparrow skips by

unaware, unafraid,

its claws skritching the gravel

and I smile

Hello, friends! It's been a while. I took an unplanned but much-needed break as I made some big transitions in my life, and though I wasn't sure if I'd ever return to this blog, I began to miss it.

So here I am. And here you are.
