light flakes
drifting weightlesslycovering
covering where pain and tears
were yielded
all the fears given up
traded for
Eucharisteo
Thanksgiving
now the snowflakes fall
whimsically
where they may
with laughter
and lightness of heart
covering
filling the holes
pain made
the emptiness
sorrow dug
the chasms
fear chiseled
The giving of thanks
Eucharisteo
Snow flakesHis grace
falling
filling
making whole
where emptiness lay
now filling with joyous laughter
overflowing tears
because He has given everything we need
there is no more left
than Eucharsiteo
giving of thanks
I have come back
like the leper
to give thanks
and I go away
rejoicing
full
weeping
complete
cleansed
like Janet said...slain
but whole
snowflakes
falling ever so lightly
His Grace
covering
my favourite things
His Grace
my favourite things
