Beaded prayer


Come.

Gather stars with me.

Clasp them tightly to your heart,

which sometimes ~

seems to

be made of lace and shells.

Imagine you hear the sea,

the waves crashing and falling

around our feet

like prayers,

mumbled

and sounding

like a prayer bracelet

held gently in

our hands.

Come gather stars.

Listen,

as I whisper the encore

of our love.

Pretty misty stars

A sound of birds singing

 It's early.  And almost a year since I was here. I hear a sound of birds singing  outside my window and a dog barking down the street. ...
