Jotting from my journal. Day #80 of daily writing/sharing

A Silent Ballet

I don’t know how to write a poem, 

but I know how to sit 
on my front porch,
bend my head in prayer
and listen for whispered words, then 

to pause 
in reverence 
when they arrive.

I am certain of so little, really—

I only know how to 
string song and sorrow
to make this 
something 
that might reach you. 

First there was blank, 
a silent ballet,
now there is 

this.
