And as the world turns darker
and becomes a harsher place
do ask yourself: how can each
of us become a safe space
for others, a calm harbor
where love and peace grant us grace?

And though I feel uprooted and homeless
in truth I have a welcome home inside
You too may find your truest home in you —
and all you have to do is take the door
that’s in this house within, and be welcomed

And though the sky may darken
and the light outside begins to fail —
within my heart’s home curtain wall
I’ll leave the light on for you

As I wake up and stretch my legs
I think about me taking sail
to distant shores and fairest isles
and writing my own fairy tale —
with tranquil thoughts to start the day
I’ll climb up over my heart‘s gunwale

Good morning

And though the storm clouds gather still,
salvation waits, as all around
us, people whom we love and love
us help to make safe harbors sound.
Together we will make our stand
and weather dangers on safe ground

And as I walked through failing light
and felt my feelings twist in fright
at all the hate and war and fear
that‘s all around us, there to sear
and drag us all in murder’s wake —
I spied a bench along the lake
and chose to sit there for a while:
I felt its peace become fertile
