Presence

This poem was meant to be posted around Christmas time, so here it is a bit late, enjoy!

this present moment is a gift

in it there is grace

rest in it

open it


let the ribbon stick to your hair

the tissue paper tear

and sway across the floor

strip away the wrappings and

shout with joy and genuine gratitude

of this gift let it fill you

strengthen you



not because you deserve it

but because you are loved

and that’s not just worth living

it’s worth giving
