dear one
why do you read
this musing?
is it not
to connect
with yourself?
to meet yourself
in tenderness
to sense the quiet
that dwells within
witness your many actions
that seek peace, kindness
and clarity
they are your
countless devotions
your love letters
to life itself
to the great mystery
that surrounds and suffuses you
that is you
look closely
look kindly
see the faithful seeking
the tenderness of your own heart
