Early Watch

Coffee is my company

in this faith profession

from a rocking chair.

 

I am all for you—and you,

you are all for me, all for

each; love-awed you

are for each and you are for all.

 

And this glory dance

that you conduct into being

is your magnum opus blooming

in light steeped color:

 

Another day.

Another chance.

World without end.

 

Amen, amen, amen.
