Three Thinks.

19/1/2023

0 Comments

 
Realised I haven't posted any 'thinks' in a long, long while. So here are three, in no particular order, from my recent musings. 

#1 
Today I caught
with slipping fingers
the filigree of hope.
And I clasped at it
with all I had
to watch as it

#2 
Pool
Fence
Dog
Poo
Grass
Grow
Chair
Fade
Cobweb
Moss
Dust
Drudge
Sweep
Hope
Graft
Flower
Sprout.

#3
Weakness
is all I offer.
A humble 
down and out. 
Left over 
lingering of
not enough-ness. 
And yet, somehow,
it turns  
to brilliance. 
An offering of
unimaginable
worth.
Just me
and my lack
held in the grip
of grace.
