In the Welter


When it's run or shelter,
When the rain or the night or the welter
Presses us close and the choice
Marks us together...
Then will we know,
In the breath and the skin, in the soul
Whether we choose
Trust, whether we hold.

Sharing with The Sunday Muse...thinking about the new year, about all the choices we face as each day asks similar questions.

    Togetherness is the mother of some of the most important decisions we make.

    And it's a beautiful thing when our choice to trust is rewarded when the world is at its harshest. I really love this piece.
