Brigid in the Year of 2020
O Brigid,
I stand in front
of your altar
Daily
Sometimes not so
present
All sleepy-eyed
and foggy headed
Wondering what to
do next
If anything.
This year
Was an endless
parade of
“What now?”
Yet I always spent
time with you
Asking for
guidance
Hoping you would
light the way
If anything.
I kept
The offerings
plentiful
Weekly
Brought items of
nature
Praying that now
you would
Grant me some
answers
If anything.
So now
The end of the
year is nigh
You were there
So subtle I didn’t
always notice
Guiding, teaching,
answering
With much
gratitude, I am more faithful
If anything.
