Lent
forgiveness and foraging
Lent
I am the rest that comes before blossoms.
I am the bridge between pagan ways and the rule.
I can separate the sin from the sinner.
I can carry the burden.
I know what can be done.
I know how to let it go.
I see each grain of sand, each thought, dream and whisper.
I see the oasis that forms when I let go.
I feel the sting of shedding.
I feel the pain of pushing through.
I sense the changing seasons, wind and age entangled.
I sense the grounding of new dreams, new hope.
I can taste forgiveness, forgoing, and forgetting.
I can taste the sweetness, sugar, softness.
New dreams, discoveries.
Growth and gaining.
Alpha and Omega
The Words become my salvation.
