Pray

How
May I pray
For you
Specially
I asking
That my
Inadvertent touches
Lead to no
Contamination
No request
Is too petty
If I can’t
Trust
In small
I can’t do
It in abundance

Whole in you

Christ the Redeemer
How I long
To see thee
This I know
Touch the world
In the way
Only you do
Lord
Speak
To the
Anxious
The defeated
And those
In need
Of
The only antidote
Most of us want
To be recognized
And whole

Take me back
To the
Ocean State
Cool beach breezes
Lobster rolls
And sunshine
Overlooking Narragansett Bay
I fell in love
With a place
Where I felt
Whole
And joy
For no other
Reason that
I was alive
In the moment

Candy cane

Red and white

Sweetness 

In 

Every bite

Jesus
I’m driving
Myself insane
Trying not
To touch
Me eyes
Wipe my nose
Not well enough
Afraid of contamination
I’m afraid
Of the virus
But the anxiety
Is doing work
On my
Head
Right now

Resurrection

I will keep writing
I will share my
Imperfection
I spent years hiding
What I already saw
My life matters
I just had
To believe
It
And
And I don’t have
The energy
Disputing my worth
I wanted
To be normal
God had
Other plans
The person
I get
To discover
Is me
Lord
Thank you
For validation
Through
A resurrection

Watching

Cook
Is a balm
To my spirit
Food
The language
That keeps
Loving us
When
Anxiety
Has
Me unable
To think
Rationally
