The
Shaping of Today
Lines
were there---the shaping of today---
Our silent story written in air---and never lost:
The
things I must do---
And
the pauses before they’re done
As
I lift them up and offer them to you---
And
the things to let loose---that they may fly away
Things
to see---those that wake---
That
make the substance of life’s story lines
Lines---created---each
moment recorded
As
is---each strand of hair---
And
the telling of story:
Strength
in him---in weakness---gifted life---
In
each thought lifted up as prayer
