Devotion
A simple word;
Three syllables of
...complicated
.......baggage
Leftover from
the time before.
Daily devotion,
a life lived by core tenants
I never knew I needed...
Until You.
Hammer to anvil,
shadows and slime
squeezed from the chest
of a girl broken
one
too
many
times...
Devotion
picked up the pieces
the wind tried
to whip away.
Honoring You
In life,
In love,
In my child,
In my day,
In my work,
In my breath,
In my heart...
Until my last breath
whisks me away
to that liminal space;
Land and Sea and Sky
come together
where You wait.
