Make it so,
the way an umbrella shelters
without removing the
experience of rain,
the way the flags flap
in the breeze,
giving away just a little bit
of their colour
with each passing moment,
so that we may pray
through and with them,
and it’s amazing
how long they hang on.
Make it so,
a full, bright, hope-filled
life. Take it all in.
Feel the breath
moving through you.
Know, too, that the
fading of things
is also a reminder
of the fullest
expression of beauty,
at birth, in life,
and in the passing
of all things.
