Grace


Existence is grace.

Breath is gratitude.

When Jesus said,

'I have overcome the world,'

he meant,
'I have surrendered.'

The night is about to pour

her swirling chalice of stars

into your chest.

There is no radiance, no joy
not
already bottled
 in your tears.

A raindrop shakes the earth

and a ray of morning sun

pierces the Winter sky,

an annunciation

to the virgin silence

of your heart.

O friend, just being aware

is abundance.

All you need to do

is stop complaining

and say thank you.
