When you’re
seeking something
to be grateful for,
look upon the sunset
and recall
how wonderful it is
that creation wasn’t formed
in only black and white.
Faith, Health, and Other Musings
May our minds flourish with creation, and may our hands never deny its expression.
When you’re
seeking something
to be grateful for,
look upon the sunset
and recall
how wonderful it is
that creation wasn’t formed
in only black and white.
I can scarcely
write poetry
when I’m with you
because
I’m far too overswept
by the way it feels
-LMG
Thunderstorms
and hurricanes
deceive us
when they change course,
letting us believe
that disaster can
weave around us,
when death is a tempest
that will not miss.
It’s not a symptom
of disrespect
or irreverence
to want America to be better,
but is instead of the purest love:
a love that wants
to carry
something even higher.
-L.M.G.
It’s pain,
more than a priest,
that teaches you
how to pray.
