Beauty

and strength

can be found

in

 brokenness

My grace is sufficient for you,

for my power is made perfect in weakness.

 2 Corinthians 12:9

 

 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.

I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Isaiah 41:10

...even if my hand looks like a hydrangea or a beach.

Why, ... Poetry!

Why, ... Poetry!  Hello there…

I wasn’t expecting you.

You are so beautiful.

Let’s go sit for a while, and talk.

Take me again, the way you do, to places unknown.

Capture me with your words.

Wipe my tears

and hold my fear, undisturbed.

Like old friends with history

who pick up right where we left off.

We are different, you and I,

but we understand each other somehow.

I read you like a book,

and you see right through me

shining light into my darkness.

You know what I’m about to say

before I say it.

That  funny way you talk,

I’d recognize your voice anywhere.

Why, ... Poetry

you are a gift to me.
