A Blessing: January 2021
Blessings as you keep going
In this strange, hard, monotonous,
Heartbreaking season.
Blessings as you change your mind
And your emotions every few minutes
Wanting to sleep for a year
and go on an adventure
All at the same time.
Blessings as you grieve
And get pissed
And are okay
And are not.
Blessings as you try to do the right thing
By embracing a new normal
Whilst craving some normality.
Blessings as you try to find firm ground
Whilst the world crumbles underfoot.
Blessings as you watch a new world
Emerge from the ashes.
