Genesis

 
"In the Beginning"
-Genesis 1:1
 
~+~
 
You hold me through the tantrum
through the kicking and screaming
through the heartbreaking bewilderment
of me,
of Your child...
 
...till the tears finally ebb
till my heaving heart slows
till Breath returns...
 
You hold me close close close...
till all is once again
Rest
 
and I curl up into the heart of You
buried in You
broken in You
but ready,
once again,
 
to
 
Bloom
 
~+~
 
"The wilderness and the wasteland shall be glad,
and the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose"
-Isaiah 35:1

I feel the heldness of your heart
and am grateful that even in the dark times
your light shines bright
and with such beauty to read and share,
Jennifer
