Growth by Grace

~~ Growing by Grace ~~

A
death
in blossom:
I love the life I had
and grieve the One I lost
yet even amid the mourning
new aspects of my self emerge
words I had no inclination to refine 
when life's duet was full to overflowing
have now become the anchor of my days
my work, my life, my pleasure, my companion
I am a writer
renewed
by joy

Celebrating new growth seeping in through the cracks of devastating grief and nourishing new hope.  A gift of Grace.  Thanks be to Godde.
