Beautiful poem. And it could have easily shown up as a descriptive essay instead of poem which makes it so interesting to think about why some thoughts and feelings show up as a poem and some show up in prose. I imagine the spare words match your quiet mood.
Shawn, wow...these last three lines.
"when the river
keeps running even
though we can’t see it."
It's good to reflect on the always-withness of God's work...even when it's hidden behind weeds and brambles and too-full trees.
Thank you for this today.
Thank you, Jody.

Thanks, Aimee. It is interesting, isn't it, how words show up to us in different forms?
Not that you don't know this or need anyone's permission, but gosh it's good to get quiet. Love the poem.
Yes, it is. Thanks, Kristine.
This is just so much loveliness! I’m so glad you stepped into “something a little different.”
Thank you, Laura!
lovely.
