kneeling in the church that I have known
all my life
stained glass windows reflecting light and love
sacraments I have witnessed
forty seventy no closer to hundreds maybe more
certainly more
washed with prayers holy water stains
your name was mentioned
please pray for
I lost it and at the same time found home
in the community of saints living and eternal within those church walls
with its unending faith carried by one or the other
buoyed my spirit ebb and flow
to the healing source
