I was invited to write some “tankas” a form of poetry:

IN SILENCE
In silence she kneels
The morning gives her promise
Time heals all and yet
The wounds of yesterday speak
She hopes her prayers silence them

IN GLORY
In glory and praise
The world wakes from its slumber
Hidden miracles
Await the full sun’s splendor
Secrets unfold in between

BREEZES OF GRACE
Sometimes in silence
We hear the loudest voices
The breeze of grace flows
To open what is our own
And give the world our treasures

THE DRAGONFLY BLOUSE
The dragonfly blouse
When worn brings comments many
“It makes me happy”
Or “It reminds me of Mom”
A dragonfly hat is next
