Again
The work starts
As soon as you open your eyes in the
Morning
Hopefully you got
Some good rest last night
Why go into the city or the fields
Without first kissing
The Friend
Who always stands at your door?
It only takes a second.

The works starts
As soon as we open our eyes
The work of love
The work of healing
Hoping
Listening
Caring
Giving
It is hard work!
The new is grim
Our situations are difficult
It feels as if the world is out of control
And there is little we can do
About the abuse of power
Greed
Guns
Racism
All
But it is our work
To create reconciliation
Healing
Wholeness
It is our work to help drag the Kingdom of Love
Kicking and screaming into reality
So it seems
We had better start our day right!
With a kiss!
With an intimate moment
with Sacred
With Love
With that power that created the mountains and valley
The streams and lakes
The animals in all their beauty
The sun, and moon, and all stars
We had better start our day there
Before we face those power
That deny love and live
Where we start matters
What we feast on, in those first moments of the day
Matters
O taste and see that the Lord is good;
happy are those who take refuge in them (Psalm 34.8)
Love is waiting
Ready to embrace and empower
Love is waiting
For you to open the door
And greet it with a kiss
It only takes a second
