it is seldom
perfect
but it is
most often
preferred.
as the coastline
meeting the sea
ever changing,
asymmetrical
and beautiful
in its
misshapen form.

to learn how
to truly
embrace that
fluctuating and
crooked grace
with action
and faith,
not just words,
but genuinely..
is to master
life.

then everything
starts to surge
even in the
low times,
it rolls
past us
cool and quiet.
a silent vigil
through nights
that cover us
serene and tender,
like soft
blankets.
