From A Quiet Prayer

Out of This Place

There were the most

tender moments

of deep connection.

And there were moments

that were painful

beyond description.

Somehow, I found,

it all returned

to tenderness.

And so I continued

to show up

and participate in life

because I had experienced

the endless struggle

in the search

and the relief in finding

just one word

shared out of this place

that could bridge the gap

in my own heart.
