Day 3, Poetry as Prayer

Sunday was a very gray day. And our challenge was to write about shadow and light. The weather wasn't conducive to sitting outside, so I pulled my chair over and snuggled down and looked out the window. I wrote and wrote, but this is all I came up with...short and real.


Storm

Gloomy, gray and dull
a half-light day.
Shadows linger,
and this house shakes in the storm.

A pin-prick of light
That’s all I need Jesus.
Just a pin-prick.

4th Challenge

Not long after, this was the view...a pin-prick.
