Poem from Molly Joseph

we pray...
         we pray...
   ....   ....  ....
As I sit 
        vacant
staring into
     my yard
where sun
         steals 
through 
         foliage 
to fall on
        Earth 
as if 
     to light up
 the withered 
dark 
leaves in
       blotches
of brightness...

seems 
        the wind
hesitates
       to blow...

life! How 
      you offer
your random
     gifts of pain,       pleasure
                 frets,
surprises,
            tensions...    

you the   
        oscilling  
elastic thread 
      convulsing
expanding...

      endlessly
you keep us
            on anticipation,
       anxiety....

hah!

just now 
   it popped up.
the short
        message 
from my 
             friend
facing the
        music of a surgery     unavoidable...
 
       while at 
another end
      man made     devastation 
             reigns
innocents   
          reeling under...

Lord! 
        you reign over the dark 
         piercing it,  
to shower  
          radiance
of hope, 
         recovery 
refreshing 
    our parched
mindscapes...

shower
   your radiance
on us, on all,
we pray...
         we pray...
