When It All Shakes Out (You Exist)

When it all shakes out, beloved, you will know what is true and what was only pretense, And it will hurt, because there are things you wanted to be true that will never be true, and things you needed to be false, that were never false, and things in the middle that you will discover […]

Draughts of Eternity

As I write tonight, I am sitting beneath a Strawberry Moon. Blindingly bright, it rises over the low pasture, and up onto the ridge, her beams picking their way through the blueberry rows, bush by bush. I settle into a creaking Adirondack chair  – a gift given with memories to keep and memories to create […]

The Gift Is In These Walls

The gift is in these walls, a bit musty from food frying and a bit dirty from child-hands running across old white paint.

The Day I Wake

He wraps himself in light as with a garment…He walks upon the wings of the wind. (Psalm 104) The day I wake I find you spoken in a thousand gleams of light all the material, all the weight you roll yourself and hide yourself and reveal yourself and the day I wake I pour myself […]

A Marriage Song
